Imagination in Good Hands, Houston

Four is an interesting age to be, especially if you’re Alex (and you regularly nuke your parents’ Internet line with one youtube download after another) and you go to Alex’s school. Charles is a two-year-old who brings a feeding bottle to school. Pia is a four-year-old who wants to become Hannah Montana. Bowen is three and he snacks on rice and beef loaf at 10 in the morning. Mary has a pet plant, and goes around the playground asking other kids, “Where’s my mom? Where’s my dad?” Then, there’s Kylie who, at four, has a boyfriend whom she describes as “very handsome,” prompting my daughter to ask that same night, “What does handsome mean, ma?”

My daughter’s imagination is in good hands, very, very good hands.
