When it comes to what happens at school, Ben is a man of few words. We ask questions and we get monosyllabic answers. It’s like he’s already a teenager. Tabby was the same way and I wonder if it’s just because they enjoy it being their own world, away from us. I suppose that’s OK, but I’m curious too.
So I’ve always enjoyed the reports his school sends home. Sometimes they’re merely informative. Sometimes they’re hilarious. Ben’s personality definitely shines through. Recently though, they did away with the paper reports and now send us daily emails via an app called Tadpoles that is specifically for this sort of thing. This is even better because A) no paper to deal with and B) now we get photos.
So the photo we got yesterday was the only indication he’d gotten to see a live kangaroo at school yesterday! When asked about it, his only comment was (with a wry grin), “He pooped in the gym.”
Olivia is the same way and like you I want to know how they are doing away from Niel and myself. “He pooped.” LOL!!
