back to work and school play

Well, it was back to work for me on Monday the 18th after 16 and a half weeks maternity leave. I was dead tired by the end of the week. In fact every afternoon around 3pm was a little hard too. After trying out the daycare twice last week, Alicia had her first cold (of I'm sure many to come) this week. She was very good though even though it is hard for her to suck her thumb with a cold. She continued to sleep nicely through her nights.

I did however negociate to work one day from home. But, watching mommy work is not very interesting.
Brandon had his year end school play yesterday. Each class represented a different continent. His did North America. They sang and danced to: The Canadian Hockey Game song (I have to admit I had never heard this song before); Yankee Doodle; Skip to my Lou; Home on the Range and New York New York. Here are a couple of pictures. Brandon is the last one to the right in all the pictures.

No wonder we couldn't figure out what baseball song Brandon was learning that day. It was a hockey song! Looks like he was having fun.

Was it "the good old hockey game"?

Hervé and Bryn a dit…

yes, it was the good old Hockey game. I don't remember ever learning that song. Maybe because I've never been to a hockey game

Nouvel essais je n'avais pas de nouveau commentaire noté sous la photo d'Alicia donc j'ai remis tout en bas.Et pour Brandon, c'est sa fête de jeunesse ce spectacle?

"The Good Old Hockey Game" is by Stompin" Tom Connors. It's not what I would have thought of for a song from Canada...but both the teachers are American, aren't they?

Hervé and Bryn a dit…

yes, both teachers are American. Next year his teacher is Canadian from T.O.

Margot a dit…

Is that Mrs. "Green bum"?

Hervé and Bryn a dit…

yes, Miss Greenbaum will be his teacher. Must not be an easy name to carry.
