Fundamentals..
The lizzard King's son,Little Newt,started kindergarten this very week.
I love this little guy.
He's sharp as a tack,and full of piss and vinegar.
I frequently have to remind myself that he's only 5 years old,because he is possesed of wisdom beyond his years.
Bounding into my room for his weekend visit,and proud as a peacock,he announced,.."I went to school!" ..
"Way cool Newt!".."What did you learn at school?"

.."Don't stand across of the yellow line at the bathroom,because if the door opens up,it will knock you down"..
Damm..I wish I had learned that a helluva lot sooner.

Why did they hafta pick yellow for the line in front of the bathroom?
That is the cutest damn little newt I ever saw. And smart, too! Congrats to the little reptile on this big milestone.
What a cutie is that Newt! I don't remember yellow bathroom lines from schoool. That could explain why I got knocked down a lot.:-)
chuckle chuckle--what a cutie-pie!
I have 2 more weeks until I am back to work (sped. teacher here).
Look at the size of that backpack! chuckle chuckle...that much homework, eh? :)
We had a new school built last year and in our supposedly "green" school they put in walk-in potties with electric flushers and handwashers...lousy and use twice as much water...no yellow lines except the half moons painted for doors...seen a few kiddos get beaned good...and in the cafeteria, all the food is pre-cooked preservative CR-P! and micro heated and the "green" air system, costing 1 million smakeroos breaks down every week...yup, tax payers $$ hard at work again...flushing down that fancy sensor-toilet!
I won't even go near the lighting system....a joke!
Newt....adorable. Yellow lines in the bathroom....interesting.
I have it on good authority that some graduate students have not mastered that.
Yes, he is wise beyond his years - and he is a cutie pie too.
Ah, so we DO learn everything we need to know in Kindergarten.
He looks as if he knows how it all works...for his sake I HOPE SO
god bless newt.
he'll have to read cat's cradle when he gets a little older. newt's one of vonnegut's lovable characters in cat's cradle.
Reminds of my littlest Nephew, Ben. When Ben was four, his asshole father decided it was time to give him an adult lecture on why he should pay attention and behave a certain way. Young Ben stood there looking up at his father as he went on in his adult diatribe for ten minutes (I'm assuming it all sounded like the teacher from Peanuts cartoons, mwa-mhwaa-mwaa-waa-waa). When Asshole (since divorced from my lovely sister) finished, he asked Ben if he understood. Ben, quick as a whip, just looked at him and said:
"yeah, and my dog sings, too." !!!
Four years old! Had me busting a gut for hours. Kids are wise beyond their years...
Thanks for all the great comments boys and girls!
I got in late from doin' that carpet thing and I'm trying to catch up.
I get a charge out of listening to how kids interperet their world,because it is a different world.
I often think that they have a much keener grasp on reality than adults.
You go little dude! Kindergarten is the best! It's such a riot watching the little humans go forth and get with the bigger world.
Sigh.. makes me a wee bit sad the Hurricane is Mr. Big Man on Campus 5th grader this year. Just entered the land of double digits today as a matter of fact. They start getting sarcastic then. OK, mine always has been, never mind.
Good luck little person!
Damn damn damn! That cunning Cowbell stole my line! (oh my manager is SO going to hear about this...)
doralong-Happy B-Day to the Hurricane..boy..There's a sentence I never thought I'd say. ;)
Hat-Cowbell is quite the clever lass..
Do I sense a catfight??..I'll go make popcorn. :P
Sling: You wish. You're just still spoiling for a good pillow fight.
Oh man, that kid is a spitfire! I bet he could beat me in arm wrestling too.
That's my Boy
Go Little Newt! Sounds like he's got an important piece of life figured out!
My grandson is starting Kindergarten in a couple of weeks. Last weekend we took him to a festival where there was some live music. At the end of the day, grandson met up with one of the musicians at the drinking fountain and said, "I liked your music." (G & G smiled with pride at his charm). Then he added, "But I like The Cars Movie better." Great age, five.
what a smart and cute little eft!
what a smart and cute little eft!
what a smart and cute little eft!
Oh, wait, yellowdog granny already said that a couple of times.
CS-..but I think it bears repeating.
That is just classic!
