Meet Eddie Haskel

Today we met Xander's first grade teacher. She seems like a very nice and intelligent lady with a lot of experience and I'm hoping we'll have a good year. For a while now, we've been preparing Xander that he'll be going back to school soon and he has been very unenthusiastic about it. He will tell everyone he doesn't want to go and doesn't like school. So, tonight, his teacher asked him something like, "Are you looking forward to coming back to school on Monday?" I held me breath, afraid he would say something about how he hates school and hoped it would burn down before Monday. But, my little Eddie Haskel, future politician, says in his best teacher's pet voice, "Yes, I am looking forward to coming back and learning about all the new things you will teach us." I don't know who was more shocked- me or the teacher!
