Jack, who just loooves kindergarten, came home the other day and told me, “There was one bad thing about today and two good things. The bad thing is that…[dramatic pause] ‘Naughty Kid’ got a red today!” (Red is not good. All kindergartners dread the red.) “The two good things are…I made a new friend and now I can kick and tuck when I swing!”
I’ve been after him to kick and tuck while swinging for a few years now, explaining that then he wouldn’t need to wait until I was available to push him anymore. He’d be able to swing whenever the mood came over him. But he could just never do it. ‘Til now.
Kick…
and tuck.
With no pushes needed from me.
Dave joined him for a celebratory swing:
Life is good.
