Speaker 1: We have hit a huge milestone in our family, and
Speaker 1: that is Marley May. She's five years old. She is
Speaker 1: starting school next year. She's going to be hurt. It's
Speaker 1: so cute. It's her very very first year. She is
Speaker 1: our oldest daughter, and so it's not just a first
Speaker 1: for her, but obviously it's a first for us as parents.
Speaker 2: Happened very quickly.
Speaker 1: Well, I don't know if it did. Did It just
Speaker 1: feels like it creeped up on me though it's growing up.
Speaker 1: Five years happened, No, I know, you like she was
Speaker 1: just born. And you've got to remember. So Britta and
Speaker 1: I we met when I was pregnant with Marley May.
Speaker 1: So we started our podcast Life on Cut when I
Speaker 1: was seven months pregnant. So it kind of feels a
Speaker 1: little bit as though, like every year that Marley has
Speaker 1: a birthday, it's kind of feels a bit of a
Speaker 1: work milestone for us as well, because it's around the
Speaker 1: time that we became friends. So five years it's that's
Speaker 1: a long time. And then she's gonna start school next year.
Speaker 1: She's so excited for it. She's very very ready. She's
Speaker 1: a super smart little cookie. But last week we had
Speaker 1: our school orientation, and so I thought the school orientation
Speaker 1: was for the kids, but they do a parent school
Speaker 1: orientation first. So all of the parents went to the
Speaker 1: school hall on one night that and I made it
Speaker 1: into a date night. We went out for dinner afterwards.
Speaker 1: But we sat there and they had like a presentation
Speaker 1: around what was going to happen, like a presentation around
Speaker 1: the canteen and how the kids can order their lunch.
Speaker 2: In the canteen system. It's a pretty nice canteen. Do
Speaker 2: they still just do like migpies.
Speaker 1: No, No, everything's like you know, the five star health
Speaker 1: rating now.
Speaker 2: So they they had no brown paper bag with a text.
Speaker 1: I think it's the same. I think you put everything
Speaker 1: into a washing basket and then they take it down
Speaker 1: to the canteen and a brown paper bag and then
Speaker 1: they go and.
Speaker 2: Pick it up and eat it in their lunch. Nostalgia.
Speaker 1: And now they had the thing called it's called crunch
Speaker 1: and Sip where they have a ten minute break before
Speaker 1: recess where they go, yeah.
Speaker 2: They got but they get smoke.
Speaker 1: They have a smoko break before recess.
Speaker 2: Where they lunch recess.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so they get to eat an apple or a
Speaker 1: piece of vegetable or it's sorry too easy.
Speaker 2: We used to go.
Speaker 1: We used to go.
Speaker 2: First of all, you'd start to recess, there was no break.
Speaker 2: Then you'd get like ten chicken nuggets. I can't help
Speaker 2: you about that, steep fried processed chicken pizza pocket, pizza pocket.
Speaker 1: This is like a very reminiscent of like back in
Speaker 1: my day. That's what I feel when you had to
Speaker 1: walk all those kilumbus to school. No, but then the
Speaker 1: other thing, which I had completely forgotten about this and
Speaker 1: I just think it is the most adorable thing ever.
Speaker 1: Is you know how you get a buddy when you're
Speaker 1: in kindergarten, You get paired with a buddy, do you remember.
Speaker 2: Remember, Yeah, it's someone older, ye young to show them
Speaker 2: the ropes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so like a kid from year six, every single
Speaker 1: kindergartener gets like matched up with a buddy system. So
Speaker 1: like they So Molly's going to get to meet her
Speaker 1: buddy next week at the actual school orientation.
Speaker 2: A six student, a.
Speaker 1: Year six student that's picked out just for her. She
Speaker 1: stays like that buddy stays with them all through the
Speaker 1: first year of kindergarten.
Speaker 2: Do you think they're gonna know that Molly May is
Speaker 2: like famous?
Speaker 1: No, she's not famous famous. So the problem is though
Speaker 1: I was sitting there and they were talking about this,
Speaker 1: and then I remembered. I was like, I never got
Speaker 1: a buddy. This is why I did. I thought it
Speaker 1: was such a novelty. So when I was in year six,
Speaker 1: I was only one of three kids in my year
Speaker 1: that were denied a kindergarten buddy because we were too
Speaker 1: naughty and we were deemed to be a bad influence.
Speaker 2: So I never got a buddy.
Speaker 1: It was so bad, you know, I almost got expelled
Speaker 1: from my primary school.
Speaker 2: I don't recommend this at all.
Speaker 1: I got really angry at a boy who was teasing me,
Speaker 1: and I punched him in the face in front of
Speaker 1: the assembly. That's feminism, thank you, thank you. So I
Speaker 1: was before my time the patriarchy.
Speaker 2: How different we are, Laura.
Speaker 1: I also wasn't given a buddy when I was in
Speaker 1: year six, but that's because I was school captain and
Speaker 1: I was too busy running the ship. Oh, I was
Speaker 1: like so important person here.
Speaker 2: I was school captain. But I was given a buddy,
Speaker 2: right and then I forgot them and then like I
Speaker 2: reckon toilet. I don't know, I was very busy, you know,
Speaker 2: it was like Kamala Harris. Anyway, about six months ago,
Speaker 2: someone on the street came up to me was like Mitch,
Speaker 2: Mitch Cherry Hi, and I was like, ah, here we
Speaker 2: got a radio fan being spotted and they went, you
Speaker 2: were my buddy when I was in year six.
Speaker 1: You thought thought they.
Speaker 2: Were going to get a photo, but in fact they
Speaker 2: remembered me as their buddy. How do they remember? I
Speaker 2: don't know.
Speaker 1: You're very memorable.
Speaker 2: Also, once on a dating app, I messaged some them,
Speaker 2: was like, Hi, how are you want to meet up?
Speaker 2: And they were like, you're my buddy. I was in
Speaker 2: the year seven, year in your twelve. He's like, yeah,
Speaker 2: I want to be a buddy again.
Speaker 1: I guess it's first for everyone, right and show.
Speaker 2: Them the ropes. No, this was after the school. They
Speaker 2: were in their mid twenties. Al Right, I don't know
Speaker 2: if I should have told that story.
Speaker 1: I really took a segue, but I'm okay with it. Anyway,
Speaker 1: A massive massive milestone in our house hold.
Speaker 2: On one for you as well.
