Coming up on the end

Next week is the Little Fayoumis' last week of Kindergarten.

Wow.

How's he getting to be so big, so fast?

We'll have to work with him on his name and address over the summer. He keeps forgetting the area code, and he can't spit the whole address out in one chunk. The information's there, the retrieval's just hard. I shudder to think how a police officer upon finding him, were he lost, would have to ask him so many bazillion different ways in order to find out where he lived to bring him safely home.

He knows his first name, and his last name. He knows his phone number, and the area code, but won't say them together. He knows the address... but won't say it all in one chunk. Aaaaaaagh, quoth the parents. He's supposed to know this. We've been over it with him. Again. And Again. Just, evidently, not enough. Auuugh.

But he's still a good Little Fayoumis.

Hey cool - Beena's just about to finish her Kindergarden year too :)

get him a pen pal or two, so that when he writes them and he puts the return address on the envelope he gets to experience the fact that these pieces of information are ALWAYS delivered together. Heck, have him do the return addresses on your bills and stuff. This way he has the "fun" of helping you do a big grown up thing, and it will imprint this stuff on his mind. Maybe get him some of those cheap address labels and let him put them on his bike, baseball bat, box o junk under the bed, playstation, whatever...so that this also imprints on his mind that if these things get lost, all that information MUST be together so that someone will know how to return it.

Grammar Nazi: It should be Little Fayoumis's

Still, I find my own growth and maturity astounding. It seems like it was only a few months ago that I was just entering high school, and now I'm nearly a senior. Next school year, I'm a senior. o_o And though it's only been three years, I've felt I've matured about 15. Wow.
