Pet Day

So, last Wednesday (yes- I am a huge slacker) was pet day at Sam's preschool. Sam's preschool. Huh, no matter how much I say that, it doesn't seem right. Still hard to believe that he has started preschool. Anyway- here is his little class.

And here he is, proudly introducing his guinea pig, Giblet, to his classmates.

Although he didn't want to hold him. No way. He let Emily hold him while all the kids pawed at him.Not that she minded or anything. She was pleased as punch to get to show off her pig to all of the 'little kids' (she is a big bad kindergartener now, you know).What got me about the whole day was watching all the kids line up to file out. Check out Mr. Sam Man there- he's doing it. He's actually doing it. Wow. But notice how his hands are glued to his side? I heard his teacher tell him to keep his hands on his legs as he wouldn't stop wrapping them around the little boy ahead of him and giving big bear hugs. Oh boy, this lady sure has her hands full!

The other pets brought in that day were a dog, a huge bird and a snake. Ick, a snake. Ick Ick Ick. Ick.
