TGI Friday
When I picked Tara up from her new pre-school, Stony Creek, yesterday, she was not ready to leave. She was still busy playing and exploring. Her teacher told me Tara had a good day, and was smiling most of the time. Tara would not tell me many details of her day when I got there. She said, "I will tell you when we get home." So I had to wait. And when we got home, I asked her about her day, she said, "I will tell you at dinner time."
Such a build up! Even then, she was waiting for everyone to sit down to eat before she would enlighten us with her day's events, which included sharing her napkin with her friend Natalia at lunchtime, that they didn't go outside because it was "raining and snowing and thundering," and her new teacher was "nice." "Is that it??" John asked.
She got mad, "Don't say that Daddy!"
These details of a little girl's life are very important.
Meanwhile, Greta and her new daughter Sasha, are on a plane ride of a lifetime: They are returning home today from Ukraine. Welcome home, Greta, and welcome to our newest U.S. citizen!
