Chapter 8
Preschool
Age: 3 + 5 months
"Why is the sky blue?" asked Jack, "Um... because if it wasn't then how would we see the clouds?" answered Anna as she tried to finish off her work for the school. "Why are there clouds?" asked Jack "Water in the sky honey" Anna said, "Why is there water?" he asked "For us to drink" she answered getting a little frustrated at this. "Why do birds have feathers?" Jack questioned, "To keep them warm" she answered "Do you know where I put my keys?" she asked, Jack held up the keys before getting a stern look from Anna. She snatched them and told him to never touch her stuff before apologizing and hugging him.
"We need a preschool… I can't work with him pestering me… He's only three but…" was all Jack could hear from his blue rocket decorated bed in his room. He got out of his bed and climbed into his toy chest, pulled out his old teddy before climbing back into bed. He woke up next morning, walked down stairs teddy still in hand, to find Anna at the table with her laptop constantly e-mailing people at her school, (she was a volunteer at a school) and Jonathan cooking up breakfast. Jack sat down in the living room and piled up some coloured blocks, which turned out to be a throne, that teddy sat in. Jonathan sat Jack at the table and gave him his porridge "eat up little man!" he said in a cheery voice.
A week passed by, Jack woke up to find a light blue jumper, white polo shirt and black trousers. He went through to Anna and Jonathans room where he climbed onto the bed and in-between the grown-ups, Anna moved him closer to her so they could cuddle to sleep. When he woke up for the second time to find Anna brushing her hair on the edge of the bed. She picked him up and carried him towards his room where she helped him into the black trousers, polo shirt, socks and jumper before heading down stairs to give him his breakfast. Once he had had his breakfast he put on his black trainers, Anna put on a wristband to keep him from running off as they walked down the road to the school that Anna volunteered in. Instead of walking through the door they went through a blue gate and into a large room where Anna dropped Jack off after talking to a lady in a blue top.
A 26-year-old lady took his hand and led him to a circle of beanbags, "which one would you like, Jack?" she asked in a soft voice, Jack pointed to a dark blue one. Jack sat down on his beanbag and the lady sat down next to him, "Why do we have feet? And legs?" Jack asked, "If we didn't then how would we walk?" she said. Jack had to think about this, his face scrunched up in thought until he just shrugged his shoulders in defeat. "I'm Katy and I'm going to be your key worker along with Tommy okay?" she said, "okay" he replied. Two girls came in the door, one had blue eyes and red hair, the other had black hair and brown eyes, they sat down on the two pink beanbags opposite him, when Katy looked away they stuck their tongues out at him. Later on a boy with chocolate brown hair and green eyes rushed over to them jumping up and down in front of them, "Tommy this is Jack, Jack this is Tommy" Katy said.
Tommy and Jack played all day until they had to go home, Anna chatted to Tommy's mum on the way home, Tommy turned off into another street while they turned around the corner into their home.
I'm having a writers blank right now so this is the best I can do.
