School is interesting to say the least....I have learned a lot about my child when I am not there. The past year, she has been going once a week with me. My buddy and Me was what she was in. She has moved up since turning 3 and is now doing a Teriffic Tots class, with the same teacher Miss Diane. Katie has been to 3 classes so far (today I got to volunteer in her class) and over all, she is a pretty good girl. She does like to do things her way and we are working really hard on having her do it the teacher's way. Her first day, she told the teacher "You are not very nice" because she was told to play with the other kids.
Last Wednesday, while she was in class, my friend Claudia (whose daughter Taryn is also in the class) and I had a nice breakfast at Dink's while the girls were in class....when we came to pick them up, I was told "She called another kid an idiot, ran from me on the play ground and spit in a kids bucket" OMG~ my child? I though maybe I can just turn and walk out and pretend I don't know her. Until she starts saying "mommy". When I asked her why she called another person an idiot (I am thinking it was from Toy Story) she said "because she told the teacher I was done with my food and I wasn't, so I said 'You idiot, I am not done!" Ugh..... At least I know no one will be pushing her around! She then told me she spit in the bucket because "The girl asked for water in it" Well, way to think outside of the box, but gross. We talked about what behavior would have been better. After all, she is in pre-preschool to learn all these hard things. :) She is lucky I love her so darn much!
