School Daze - Chaska Style

Claire had her first day of school in Chaska today, and things went very well. She seemed real happy when she and Stew returned this morning. Plus, Stew wasn't crying about "...all the mean moms picking on me." To commemorate the day - and since I don't have any pictures ready to post - I wrote you a song (set to the tune of Winter Wonderland). Enjoy - and I don't want to hear about it if it doesn't rhyme to your satisfaction.

School bells ring, Claire's not listening.
A new outfit, she is christening.
We should be alright,
If Claire doesn't fight
With all the little Chaska snots at school.

Gone away is the old place.
Here to stay is a tax base.
The school is real nice,
But sort of high priced,
Just to teach Chaska tots how to share.

In the classroom Stew is quite a showman,
Pretending he's some sort of circus clown.
Moms say "Stew, are you for real, man?"
"Because you're gonna have to tone it down."

When it's time to sing good-bye songs,
Sounds from Stew just sound plain wrong.
But we'll frolic and play, the Chaska way,
Attending Claire's new weekly toddler class!
