Recess-day #2 of kindergarten

Mom: So how was school today?
Tom: You will never believe what happened at recess today......
Mom: What happened?
Tom: Some older kid on the playground kicked a soccer ball and it hit Joe right in the head......
Mom: Joe are you okay?
Joe: Yeah, I looked at Tom and cried a bit, but then we took the soccer ball.
Mom: What did you do with the soccer ball?
Joe: We put it back in the bin.  We told the kids that the ball needed a time out! :)

Then, it so happened that these older kids came up to Tom and Joe and asked "Are you those twins we see in church every Sunday?.......Do you know the guy who plays the piano and organ at church?

Tom and Joe simultaneously replied, "YES, HE IS OUR GRANDPA!!!!!"

Then, all was cool between Tom, Joe and the older kid.  Way to go Grandpa!


On a Peter note- With Tom and Joe gone all day, Peter is livin' up getting to do whatever he wants whenever he wants it.  Point in case, today he chose to wear his shin guards all day with his flip'n flops and then chose to bring along his accordion to pick up his brothers today.  His brothers belted out in laughter :).

1st DaY of KiNdErGaRtEN!

September 4th 2012-Tom and Joe's 1st Day of Kindergarten!!!!

I think it was more difficult for me than it was for them....my little babies are growing up so fast!!
They were so EXCITED to wake up and GO to school!

 Tom, Braden, and Joe before lining up to go inside.
 Silliness before school starts
Here they are lined up and ready to start their day!

Brian headed to work while Peter and I went home and didn't know what to do.....I asked Peter, "Well what should we do?" Peter replied-"Can we watch Mickey Mouse Playhouse?  Tom and Joe never let me watch that." I said absolutely!

After we picked them up, I asked how their 1st day went......
Joe-"It was kind of boring......all we did was put all of our school supplies away."
Tom-"It was pretty good."  Tom found humor in telling me a story of how 2 out of the 3 triplet girls fell asleep during rest time :).

All in all a good day!
