PRESCHOOL

In September Jackson will be
starting preschool.
Three days a week.
He’s so excited, you’d think
he was going
to Disney World.

Jackson has given up
saving for a castle.
“It’s taking too long,” he says.
Now he’s buying himself
stuff for preschool:
Spider-Man backpack,
big box of crayons,
drawing pad,
kiddie scissors.

He wiggles his little hips
and says, singsongy,
“I bet I get more homework
than you, Bindi.”
Here’s hoping
he’s right!
