Grade One, Day Two.

Girl in Line Up to My Child: Why are you wearing the saaaammmeee dress as yesterdaaaayyyy?

My Child's Mommah: She's NOT wearing the same dress as yesterday. Isn't that apparent?!

Girl in Line Up: Well, it looks the same.

My Child's Mommah: No. It doesn't. This one is brown and pink, yesterday she was wearing purple checks and a hat.

Girl in Line Up: Well.. it has a bow.

My Child's Mommah: So? We like bows. That doesn't make it the same dress.

SARCASTIC LITTLE BEOTCH.

Later in the picture lineup:

Same Girl in New Line Up: Lets see what color you are picking (for background).

My Child shows her.

Same Girl in New Line Up: Well, IIIII think you should pick viiiiolet, like meeee.

My Child: Well, I am picking Green.

Same Girl in New Line Up: Well, IIIII think you should pick viiiiiolet.

My Child: Well, I'm not going to.

My Child's Mommah: I think you picked a gorgeous color, it will match your eyes! Besides everyone picks purple, you don't want to be like everyone else.

My Child: Yeah, I like green.

My Child's Mommah: Me too. I don't like purple.

Same Girl in New Line Up - Shuts the hell up.

THAT'S RIGHT PIPSQUEAK, F-OFF.

GRADE ONE ~ DAY ONE.

My five year old got lost on her way in from recess and subsequently locked out of the school. Scared the teacher, who I met coming down the stairs to look for her after all the children had come inside and been seated. I was with her, though they didn't know that. Yeah.. scared Her half to death.. Me too. Hmm..

Jelly beans are given at recess. Not to my child. This will have to stop.

And, during the boring assembly for the whole school, the principal stood almost ontop of the grade one class and looked over them, directing his speech to the back of the gymnasium.. with no to-do about their arrival into formal education. The welcome I forgive - but, if you invite an entire class to hear you speak, speak to them. TO THEM.

Other than that MC (My Child) was very excited to have her name on her desk. And, when I asked her what she did she responded, "WE HAD THREE RECESSES!!!"

Welcome to Grade One, Kid! :)
