Like Sands Through the Hourglass...

So are the days of Jaxon's life. Preschool can be such a soap opera. Jax comes home with some pretty interesting tales. I'm sure they'd be even more interesting if you could get him to share all of the details. Instead you get bits and pieces of the story after an hour of playing 20 questions. Here's what I've been able to figure out from this week.

• Gonzi, one of Jax's 2 best friends from the regular school year, has been replaced by Daniel. Daniel was there during the regular session, but evidently didn't make the cut. Since Gonzi isn't participating in summer session, Daniel was accepted into Jax's circle of friends.
• Baylor, Jax's other best friend, cried on Tuesday. Jax confessed to hitting Baylor "by accident" with his lunch box, but promises that's not why he cried. After lots of questioning, we figured out that Baylor cried because he fell out of his chair.
• Jax still doesn't know any of the girls' names, but he somehow managed to tick one of them off this week. Evidently she made a "mean" face at him. He even demostrated, and it was definitely "mean." When I asked him what he did to her to make her mad, he said, "I didn't do anything." Right!
• The playground mulch has also led to a lot of drama this week. The teachers have uttered the following phrases this week:

"Stop throwing the mulch!"

"Don't put mulch in the boat!"

"Put the mulch down!"

Stay tuned for next week's episodes!
