Ms. Yelena got a picture of me and Noah.

I got back at her with a thermonuclear portrait of the three of us (Noah on my shoulder).

This was right after Noah hurt his shoulder and while we were in hall of mirrors he fell for the second time and was done. He wanted to leave.

Last week we brought Noah to P.S. 9 to register him for kindergarten next year.

As Kate sat in the sunny auditorium filling out form after form, Noah and I took off so he could get to school.

We got to school and realized his class was out. We dropped his stuff and as we got ready to head back out, he put his hat on backwards and said he did it to be “cool”. I asked him how “cool kids” stand.

At the library near Nana T. and Opa’s looking for his class.
