Every now and again Mama’s school holds some sort of festival or party, and this month they had a Taste of India event that included fun, food, dancing, and activities for the children. It was a raucus good time and the girls had a ball of things. For us, the food was a wee bit spicey, but it had a great flavor and both of us ate our share. We took Babi along and she didn’t eat too much, but had a great time.
I imagine that the first day of school - any school - qualifies as something of a right of passage. It symbolizes that you’re maturing and getting ready to endure everything that life has to offer. What nobody ever talks about is how traumatic it can be - for the parents. That’s right, I can hardly believe that my daughter is off to preschool, starting this week, and complete with her backpack, lunchbox and a whole lot of enthusiasm Sofi headed off to “Mama’s School” to start her education.
