Future MENSA candidate
Apparently, preschool curriculum has advanced drastically since Avery attended 4 years ago. Jack, in his two half-days thus far experienced, has matured beyond my wildest imagination. He’s smart, witty and now bestows upon me little pearls of wisdom. If his current point-of-view is any indication, he’ll no doubt be a CEO of some huge corporation or wildly successful Captain of Industry in twenty-five years.
A glimpse into his psyche…
************************************
Jack: I had preschool today.
Me: I know buddy. Remember? I picked you up.
Jack: I know. I ‘member.
Me: Are you getting smarter Jack?
Jack: At what?
Me: At school?
Jack: Yep.
Me: Really? What are you learning?
Jack: Well, one super smart thing.
Me: Really? What’s that?
Jack: It’s not okay to pick your nose during circle time.
*****************************************
Yep. MENSA here we come. If he’s already realized that picking your nose isn’t an appropriate social activity then I can only imagine what’s coming up next.

Took me a post-graduate degree and a dissertation to learn the same thing.
Wow. I better start saving some more money for all the schooling he’s likely going to have. 🙂
Mindy
That’s our boy! I see a fancy calculator in HIS future!
No doubt…bright and sunny future for this one.
Mindy
Gotta love Jack. Can he teach that to my boys?
Who knew my little man was such a fount of useful etiquette rules? Maybe he should start a blog and everyone’s little guys can start following it. 🙂
Mindy
Not five minutes ago I witnessed a kindergartner picking his nose and eating it. So Jack is WAY ahead of the curve here.
Charm and good looks…magazine cover material! Thanks for making my day; this is precious! He’s going to love looking back through mom’s blog one day and reading this!
Either that or he’ll write a book about how I humiliated him. 🙂
Mindy
That. Is. Hilarious!!!
🙂
Mindy
Wait until he learns that girls do not, in fact, have cooties.
For some reason, with this kid, I imagine it’ll be sooner than later. 🙂
Mindy
This is just too hilarious. I’m glad you’re blogging about it because it’s probably one of those comments that you could forget about down the road. Now you’ve got a resource to come back to in case you forget…in a moment where you really want to embarrass him.
