Jan 15th, 2009 1st Day of School
last week was the first week of school and Aaron was so very excited (as he would say) to finally find out what Ethan his brother had been up to everyday while he waited patiently at home for him!
i had bought them each a school bag with wheels so that … Ethan could drag his bag of tricks to school with him (no he is not in magic school!) and Aaron could also pull his bag along just like his Koko. you see Aaron loves to follow everything that Ethan does cos he thinks that his big bro is just plain cool and whatever Koko does is fun.
this is a picture of what little Aaron looked like on the morning of the first day of school, sitting next to big bro…
this year we’ve (chris and myself) have made a new year resolution that we will try our best to send the boys to school on time. so we were all ready and headed down to have breakfast at 8am.
here is a picture of them after breakfast and all eager to go into the car to head over to school…
check out the bags…Ethan wanted the Power Rangers bag to fuel his obssession with them and i loved the little Ironman on wheels. what do you think?
i drove them to school parked the car and took both of them into a rather chaotic scene of crying 4yr olds tugging at their parents legs..! lol.. i quickly glanced at the notice board to find Ethan was now in Purple class – which is on the first floor!!!…so much for the wheels… and little Aaron my baby is in Peach class which is a pretty long walk all the way to the back of the school. so Ethan headed off to meet his new classmates while i took Aaron to see his new friends. along the way we passed by the 4yr olds class and half of them were crying and screaming…obviously they did not think that school was going to be fun.
when we got to Aaron’s Peach class, we were greeted by 2 teachers. surprisingly Aaron warmed up to them almost instantly, he did not even glance back at me (IMAGINE THAT) so i went over to kiss him goodbye and told him i’d be back later to get him when school was out.
they grow up so fast…many a time over the last 1 year i’ve wished that i could freeze time so that they would never grow up cos they are so cute and adorable at this age… at the same time secretly wishing that i would never grow old too…
here is a video fo Aaron, not so long ago (to me).
