On Rocket



Octavia is wearing her new school pullover in this photo. As you can see, it says "On Rocket School" which to the rest of us looks like An Droichead but sounds a bit like On Drocked (if only I had fancy linguistic symbols here!). Octavia started going to the playgroup a couple weeks back with her friend Alex. Other friends are there, too--Lorcan and Seona. And let us not forget our new friend in the class, Mohammed Ali. For real. The cutest 3-year old I can imagine and not a boxer that I know of.

So far, O has learned to say a few things in Irish: blue, red, yellow, goodbye and who knows what else since I don't speak it. She seems to be changing her original opinion--"I'm not sure about that Spanish." Very clever of them to lure her in with colour words as colours have always been her favourite part of life.
