This morning...
Socks: Today is pajama day! What are you going to wear to school? Do you want to wear your favorite purple t-shirt? It's clean.
Av: I'm going to wear my monkey pants. And I think I will wear my stripey shirt because I am cold.
Socks: What are you going to do at school today?
Av: Today is a special day. We are going to watch a Wiggles video!
Today was the much anticipated Pajama Day at school. I was excited because this meant that getting him dressed for school was much easier. It was a cold rainy morning - I know that as I was slogging my way into work that I certainly wanted to stay in my monkey jammies and watch movies.
When we got into the classroom, I looked around the kids sitting in their circle on the floor and saw all the girls in their princess nightgowns with leggings or tights underneath, or in their pink flannel pjs. One boy was sitting solumnly in the teacher's lap wearing a flannel jammie set that had polar bears on it. Then I looked at Av as he ran to the window, where he waits to wave goodbye, and noticed that he was the only one not wearing matching pajamas.
After school...
Socks: Hi sweetie! Did you have fun at school today?
Av: I did! We watched a Wiggles video AND a Barney video!
Socks: Did everyone like your monkey pants?
Av: No...They liked my stripeys!
Rock on little man!
