Huck's First Day of School

Here is Huck on his very first day of Preschool The top picture, view from the back, is him at his school orientation. His first day was rainy but the wet weather did not dampen his spirits a bit. He was so happy to go to school. He LOVES it. He never cried a bit and just plays and has already learned to clean up when he finishes an activity, after only two days. His school is in a brand new facility. It is a Montessori school. The cook twice a week in a kitchen built for little ones. It has low counters and sinks and hidden appliences and safe ovens. He has one Israeli teacher and two Chinese teachers. He will be spoken to in Chinese and Hebrew during school. He'll also have a bit of English.
I've been taking him to school in a taxi but it's so hard because the drivers don't know where to go and it's not dependable because I cannot always find one. On Monday, the driver of the first taxi that came to get me at the school did not want to go to where I live so he kicked Huck and me out of his taxi and told us to get in another that had pulled up behind us! So, tomorrow our Ayi's husband will drive him and Monday he will start taking their small bus to and from school until my car arrives. It was shipped June 11 and will probably be at least another 3 weeks.

A note about the backpack... The school had them made here. The nursery schoolers (18 months to 3 years) have yellow, the kidergardeners (ages 3-6) have green and the elementary schoolers (ages 7-12) have blue.
