Golden Pig Tales

We had the playdate with Ezra’s preschool friends. It was my first play date. I feel I may have been the only one feeling a bit awkward as I didn’t know what the parents did during a playdate for the kids. So, I sat with the other parents in the room where the kids were playing. I sat and drank my tea. The parent talk began, and I listened and nodded and tried to fit in, and the kids were playing and having fun, and then the awkward feeling lessened. It seemed the awkward feelings did not exist for Ezra or the other kids. Of course, they have had playdates before.

So, Ezra has a daily, some times hourly, some times by the minute routine of cycling through a list of people and asking where they are. He will ask were his pre-school classmates are. He will ask: where’s Grandpa and Grandma T; where’s Grandma O; Where’s Grandpa and Grandma Oster. Then he will continue with Uncle Dylan and great uncles and great aunts then begin again a minutes later or a day later. There really is no order nor is there a given reason why he begins to ask where. We just answer knowing it is good to know he remembers family and friends. And he is learning his geography as we try to give him accurate guess of where these people could be.

It’s pre-school, no is playshool.
