Jayden's Quote


At Jayden's 'graduation' ceremony from Nursery school we were given a binder that contained all his work from school, some pictures that were taken during the year of the children in his class, and also some of the cute antics of the children that the teacher and her aide had taken note of were written down for us all to enjoy.
One paper had written on it 'famous quotes' from each of the children, and next to Jayden's name was the following quote:

"What time do I have to stay 'til?"

Jayden's nursery school schedule was only three afternoons a week (Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday), but every school day, all afternoon, he would ask that question over and over again. His teacher and her aide said Jayden asked that all year long up until the last few weeks of school!
Poor teacher! Poor aide! Poor Jayden!

I wonder what the Fall will bring when he's going five full days a week?! Yikes!

  2. The picture of your little grandson is so sweet ♥ He is just a little doll! What a wonderful gift the school made for all of the parents and grandparents. Jayden's quote touched my heart ♥ Our grandson Thomas was a lot like him in that he hated to be away from home. He used to cry sometimes when I took him to school.
    Thank you for your kind comments about my blog. I like to change it for holidays and seasons. I hope you have a wonderful day.

  7. This was just too cute Eileen! Jayden to me, looked like he was thinking " Am I doing this right?". So sweet, it reminded me of Sarahs pre-school graduation and even Ginny's 24 years ago! Sweet memories, thanks for reminding me!

  8. How very sweet. Isn't is wonderful to know that Jayden knows "There's no place like home." I love the fact that the teacher included pictures taken during the school year...and those li'l quotes are and always will be priceless.
