…it is!
Monday morning came and it was the start of the school year. Piper was taking Prue, Wyatt and Chris off to school. They all piled into the car and drove down to the private school. When there Piper hopped out and walked into the office with them.
"Hi my kids are starting here today I was just wondering what classes they were in" she said to the receptionist.
"Could I have their names please?" the women asked.
"Prudence Paige Halliwell, Wyatt Matthew Halliwell, and Christopher James Halliwell" said Piper the women looked up what classes they were in.
"Prudence is in 1A and the boys are in the Prep class both classrooms are in the first building straight out that door and to the left." Piper thanked her and walked out with her kids. She found Prue's classroom first.
They walked in and found the teacher standing there talking to another parent. Piper bent down to her daughter. "Ok sweet pea mummy will talk to your teacher then she'll have to go ok, I have to find the boy's classroom. I'll be out side this afternoon." She gave Prue a hug and kissed her. As she stood up Prue's teacher came over.
"Hi I'm Miss Harper" she said
"Piper Halliwell-Wyatt and this is my daughter Prue and my son's Wyatt and Chris, they're in Prep." Miss Harper bent down.
"Hi Prue we're going to have lots of fun this year. Do you want to go choose a desk, and put your bag outside on the racks?" Prue nodded she gave Piper a hug and ran off. "Ok well I'll be back this after noon to pick her up."
Piper walked out the class room and to the left on the door at the end of the hall there was a sign. 'Welcome to our classroom' it said underneath it had Prep on bright yellow card board. Piper opened the door and led the boy's in. She looked around there were kids all around painting, drawing and looking in books.
The teacher walked over to them "Welcome who do we have here?" he asked bending down to Wyatt and Chris's height
. "My names Wyatt and this is my brother Chris" said Wyatt he bumped Chris on the hip.
"Nice to meet both of you I'm Mr. Olmen and I'll be one of your teachers this year, go have a look around while I talk to your mum ok" he stood up and extended his hand to Piper.
"Jake Olmen, I'm the sports teacher to the Prep students."
Piper smiled and shook his hand "Piper Halliwell-Wyatt, nice to meet you Jake. I've got a couple of questions if you don't mind. Mainly for Chris he has a learning disability, Dyslexia it takes him longer to learn things then say it would Wyatt" said Piper Jake nodded his head.
"Dyslexia a form of autism, is he a high functioning child or moderate?" Jake asked Piper was surprised most of the time she had to explain what it was. Jake seeing her surprise laughed.
"You were expecting me to ask what it is weren't you" Piper nodded.
"I know what it is as I have it my self. I always wanted to be a teacher but my understanding of things were a bit skewed so I played to my strengths anything to do with sport. And here I am but don't worry Mrs. Mitchell is great with kids she had two of her own, twins as well" he said, Piper nodded.
"Chris is a high functioning child his strengths are more creative then theorized, I would love to stay and meet the other teachers but I have to go, my husband needs the car and I have two other little ones at home, it was nice to meet you" Piper shook Jake's hand and looked around the class room, Wyatt was looking through a book and Chris was drawing. She walked over first to Chris and kissed him on the head.
"I'll see you this after noon ok buddy" she gave him a hug and walked over to Wyatt
"Ok Mr. be good today and no tricks ok I'll pick you, Chris and Prue up this afternoon you be good ok" she said to him then kissed him on the head too.
She walked out of the classroom just as Paige was entering neither noticed the other. "Jake hey sorry I'm late day care center wasn't open I had to get my sister to watch the twins. Any thing I should know?" she asked
" yeah one little boy has a learning disability and one little girl is deaf in one ear, but apart from that looks like its going to be a great year." said Jake there was a knock at the door Jake and Paige turned around there stood Miss Harper the grade one teacher with Prue.
"Hello Miss Harper what can we do for you?" asked Paige.
"Prue here found her little brothers lunches in her bag we were wondering if we could give them to you" Said Miss Harper. Paige nodded and took the lunches; on the bags written in neat hand writing were Wyatt and Chris.
"I know that hand writing" said Paige Jake looked at her with a questioning look
"looks like my sisters, the one I was telling you about the other day" Jake nodded. Miss Harper and Prue walked back to their class room Jake got the kids on the matt while Paige put the lunches in the fridge.
Piper had arrived home and swapped with Leo the kids for the car. Already buckled into the stroller Piper took Charlotte and Holly for a walk around the block. When she returned it was ten am. Time for the girls to go down for a nap as she came down stairs the door bell went. Piper listened out to see if it had woken her kids it hadn't. She walked over and answered it.
"Hello can I help…Phoebe?" Piper asked realizing it was her sister
"Piper" Phoebe cried
"Shhh…" Piper listened out there was a cry from upstairs
"Phoebe" she complained
"Sorry I'll come back later" she walked out and closed the door behind. Doing a little dance when she was out side so it was Leo Prue had seen, and Phoebe had been the first to see Piper, she walked back across to the Manor and found Prue inside.
"Phoebe you left three kids under five here alone" said Prue there was an angry look on her face.
"No I didn't Coop went upstairs to get Mel, and you'll never guess who I just saw." Said Phoebe Prue rolled her eyes and shook her head.
"Ok who did you see?" Prue asked Phoebe motioned for Prue to sit down; when they were seated Phoebe took a deep breath.
"Ok I went next door to ask if they had any eggs, they opened the door…it…was…" Phoebe left her sister hanging as Coop came down with Melinda
"some one needs a feed" he said he handed Melinda to Phoebe, after fixing up her daughter she grinned at her older sister who was sitting on the edge of her chair
"I'd move back if I were you, you'll fall off" Phoebe said
"no I wont tell me" said Prue
"ok but if you fall I did warn you it….was…." Phoebe waited leaving her sister in suspense she laughed at the expectant look on Prue's face
"Piper" said Phoebe as she had expected Prue fell of her seat.
She jumped up "we have to go see her" she said but Phoebe shook her head
"no I kinda woke up her child who was asleep, so I'm gonna go back later" Prue sat back down when there was a knock at the door. She jumped up to answer it.
