sounds like he's settling in real good.

i remember my first day, no hang on it mite have been the second day after i had found out it wasn't what it cracked up to be.

mum stops outside the front gate and tells me to hop out, i simply refuse. mum starts getting upset (dont know why i just wanted to stay with her at home), she gets the principal to come and help. i start locking doors, he opens one i jump into the front and the games begin, man i love musical chairs. took them a good 5 minutes.

Welcome to the world of edcation. I hope your young bloke enjoys the process as do most other school starters. Can you ride your bike past at play time to let him skite? Enjoy his years at school, he'll soon be on a bike of his own. Cheers.

Cheers mbazza!!

When my oldest was 5, they were doing an 'outdoor actvities' project at school.. so I took our tent down & set it up, & all the kids had a turn at sitting inside! Mr said 5 year old took great pride in telling his class "all about going on the motorbike to bike rallies with mum & sleeping in the tent"

he was soooo cute!!

(yes, he had just turned 5 the first time he came on the bike, to a rally!!!

) & he was 6 when he learnt to ride a wee bike by himself!!

I would absolutely LOVE to get them both bikes so we can all go tickey touring down the river etc!!!

So, yes

if the opportunity arises, I will definately take the bike to school.. for "show & tell time"..

Jen

Yep!!

the sooner he gets his bike licence, & a bike (mental note to self: BUY LOTTO TICKETS!!!

) the better I reckon!!!!

Hehe looks like he's enjoying himself ... and is he eating the packed lunches you make for him? I remember my mum making my brother and I, excellent lunches! She would sometimes give us money so we could buy a fruit/jelly/custard pie every now and then

Next thing you know, you'll be carting him off to sports games and washing muddy uniforms

My oldest is 3 and a half at the moment.

Dunno where he'll be going to school. Will it be Nelson, Invercargill, Greymouth, Hokitika, Timaru, Oamaru, Dunedin or Balclutha?

Even I don't know yet.

Congrats GSXF.

Sigh! Our young feller turns 32 next month...!

(And he's living at home!!!! LOL!!!!)

Can still remember his first years at school. The teacher's used to ring my wife and ask her to collect him as, (at 5/6!), he was beating up the 9/10 year olds! Did I mention he was hyperactive?

We're babysitting our 17mth old Grandson tonight! He's just the coolest kid!

Enjoy them while their young! He looks a cute kid! Can understand your pride!
