Jamie and Liam Chew's Blog: 2009-09-12

2009-09-12 24:37 (Kristen) John was gone early this morning, so I got the boys up and ready for a half day at Jamie's Japanese school. It was the first day, and we did a great job of making it to the subway on time, despite having to walk there due to no buses. There was complaining... We ran into Jamie's friend Harry at Yonge station, and rode all the way there with him and his family. Jamie was nervous, and I think that he relaxed when he saw Harry, and knew that he'd have one friend there. The assembly and sorting into classes went smoothly, and I reassured Liam that he'd have his own class to go to next year. He liked that idea. We sat and had coffee with Harry's family, and then went back to get Jamie. He was happy, and went out to play with the other kids while the other moms and I went through backpacks to see what the homework looked like this year. We were all shocked to see that the summer homework was still in the children's backpacks, and it seems that the teacher is new and didn't see/forgot it. We'll make sure that she gets it next week.

After playing for a bit, we had pizza and headed home for a good long veg. The kids were, once again, very very tired, but they stayed up a little late to see John when he got home from the tournament.
