My little boy is starting school in 6 weeks.  I can hardly believe it.  I know it is just pre-school but his is a big deal because he will be going to school full days for five days a week.  It will be a big change for him and for his sister.  Yesterday we got together at a local park with a some of the other families/kids from his class.  It was really nice.  The families seem very nice and laid back–even those who are on the very upper side of the upper-middle-class.  Several of the families are doctors but what is nice about this town I live in is that everyone is pretty down to earth.  It was really a great gathering and it was really great to be around families who all have the same wishes for their kids–to give them the best education possible.

We talked about getting together every other week-or even every week until school starts so that the kids can get to know each other.  I don’t know how that will work with vacations, etc., but it would be awesome for the kids to get to really know each other.  I’m pretty lucky that my kid is social and has been in lots of social stituations and is sue to beting around other kids and makes friends pretty easily.  I am excited about school–I am probably more excited than Noah is.

But it reminds me that summer is almost over.  That really sucks.
