Mummy, can I have sum more tea?

Look at my baby! He's all grown up!

Today was Jack's first day at the British School of Amsterdam. James had the day off work so we both took him this afternoon. The teachers, Miss Gannon and Miss Dillon were so friendly and warm and not at all crotchety and grumpy like the British teachers I had at Havergal.

We found his hook for his coat. In addition to the child's name, there is a picture of an animal. Jack's animal is the dolphin. He also has a little bucket in the classroom with the dolphin on it and that is where the teachers put his art work and notices.

He just sauntered in there and started playing right away. We stayed for a bit and talked with the teachers and then we left. When we picked him up, Miss Gannon said he did great and there were no 'mistakes' in his underwear. Yippppeeeeee!

He had strawberries and some milk for snack and he made me a beautiful painting. I thought my heart might burst!
