Wasn't Born Yesterday

Marma (Grandma Linda) bought the boys these cute t-shirts and last week when it was warmer, they both wore them to school. Hatcher knows that his shirt says "My Dad Rocks" and thinks that Aidan's shirt says the same thing. He loves to tell people that his Dad Rocks! Man...they are growing so fast. Hatcher is such a sponge right now; he loves to repeat things that we say. His teacher at school, Ms. Claudia, whom he adores, said to the children in a rush trying to get all the children indoors from the approaching rain, "time is of the essence." Hatcher now tells us often that "time is of the essence". It is too funny. Each day we go to school he insists on taking Aidan into the baby's room first and deciding where he will play that day. Yesterday Hatcher chose the floor next to the other boys Aidan's age playing with blocks and such. I think it is more that Hatcher enjoys playing with all the toys and deciding which one he would have the most fun with. The teachers all tell me that whenever Hatcher goes outside to play on the playground, he first goes down to Aidan's classroom and looks in the window to check on his brother. How sweet!
