It turns out that Ray knows Gerard perfectly. Inside Frank and Jamia are watching as Gerard paces the corridor, and when Bob walks into view Gerard’s face lights up, before Gerard he scowls, as if he's remembering he's supposed to be angry. "I meant that, and if you ever say anything like that about Mikey again you'll get another punch. But I hope you're okay.
Honestly, it started off as fluff, and then they both got issues and fixing those issues became complicated and more issues arrived. At times it was a huge struggle to keep the balance between that and the fact it is a story about kids and being a pre school teacher.
I'm so glad that you enjoyed them all, and your comment about Ray made me laugh. I researched opening private schools and brave and crazy sums it up.
As someone who's sat through my fair share of shambolic school shows I enjoyed thinking about the kids performing, and how it would sound terrible. But that's exactly how a show for kids that young has to sound imo. Then I teared up when Mikey clapped, because I'm lame.
Bob as a preschool teacher!! Just the idea is made of win. I'm laughing so hard about the whole idea. This story is wonderful. The mistakes these boys make feel so natural. Thanks for writing. It's been the best part of a not so great day.

there's a mistake in this paragraph as well.
