I wish we weren't all so spread apart. We could start a disgruntled kindergartener play group.

At one point this year DS5 said he wished bad guys would break into the school and steal all the workbooks and worksheets and leave the cool stuff like the Legos and microscope.

Overall he is having a good year due in large part to having a kind teacher and a sweet best friend. His frustrations are likely related to the friction between his two (or 3) e's.

Good luck with the new adventure.
