Bob sailed through the first day of kindergarten. School was "so fun," his teachers "super nice." I was just fine and held it together quite nicely until I read the sheet he brought home. I was cool and then I got to the "apple of your eye" line and I fell apart just a little. Sure, the rhyme's a little wonky but really, I didn't stand a chance.
There are many apples in the world,
This one's special - here's why:
'Cause this was colored just today
By the "apple of your eye."
So keep this in a special place;
It will help you to recall I trust
My first day in Kindergarten,
The twenty-third day of August.

ReplyDeleteThose little apples.
Some days they're cider, some days pure unadulterated vinegar, but mostly they are pie, aren't they? :)
You got that right. Just right.
DeleteWhy do they do this to us? Mine came home with a hand print, and a poem about smudges on windows and walls. In short: look at this little hand print when the kids are grown, and my windows and walls are clean, to remind me of my little guys. I couldn't see straight for an hour.
ReplyDeleteGlad the first day was good!
They are totally out to get us.
DeleteThe Empress and I are on the same page, as usual.

DeleteDamned iambic pentameter!
ReplyDeleteIt's the most wistful pentameter of the bunch.
It's like they want you in tears. Sobbing at the mercy of a crayola colored apple, an excellently colored apple I do believe.
