I will be posting some political commentary, but in the meantime...
Vivi (almost 6-yr-0ld granddaughter) started first grade today. She reported being "half excited and half 'nervilious'" - fairly typical reaction to first grade. Since I'm in my current state of leisure, I've volunteered for a couple of afternoons as chief child care person, so brother Tommy (4) and I will shortly be leaving to meet her school bus. Exciting. (Pics: Vivi at her desk, and before school w/Tommy).

Jonah (5-yr-old grandson from the Great State of MI) was less enamored with Kindergarten - Day 1. When asked what the problem was, he reportedly groused that he had been there "all day... and didn't even learn how to READ yet!"
I predict Mrs. Beanstock may consider retirement herself after this year.

I giggled at Jonah's reaction. Annie came out of the first day of first day crying because she didn't learn how to read either!!
School is going great here...high school, first grade, kindergarten and all!! Everyone's adjusting very well!!!
