I just wanted to write something real quick now that I got Eric off to school. He should have a really good day, since it’s field trip day and all. His school shirt that I bought a few weeks ago finally came in yesterday so he wore that today. The shirt is royal blue with gold lettering on it, and the kids were all encouraged to wear their school shirts today. If they don’t have school shirts they were told to wear something blue so that they matched all the other kids on the field trip. I think this is in part to help them keep all the kids together a little better while at the Houston Zoo. I personally think that’s a pretty good idea.

I had to take him to the convenience store this morning before he got on the bus to pick up a couple of bottles of water. They were asked to bring bottled water in their lunches instead of the usual drink pouches or whatever. I think this is in case they get thirsty while walking around they can drink out of the bottles and then seal them back up. Can’t do that with juice pouches or boxes. Anyway, so we had to leave a little early to get the water, and he wanted to bring some of his money out of his little ATM thing he has and buy a disposable camera. I told him to just use his cell phone though, and save his money. I mean to me it seems like a waste of money when he has the cell, but he wasn’t sure if his teacher would allow him to take pictures with his phone. If the ringer is off though, and he’s not talking on it, I don’t see a problem. Hopefully it works out.
