B with Zoe |
I went on the school field trip yesterday to the pumpkin patch. Another field trip fiasco - B ran off toward the busy road when we arrived. All the other children lined up obediently. What do I inspire in her? She begs for me to go on the field trip then proceeds to be miserable for 50% of the time. It was a great trip regardless the baby cows were especially sweet. One of the very nice moms who was on the trip said that we both had broken hearts - true.
Mary sent us a nice note. This reminds me that B allows me to go to work to make money so we can go to Fiji (that is her reasoning). The tickets are more than I make in 5 months. How do you explain that to a 5 year old? She is getting good at counting she announced this morning that 3 and 10 make 13.
No Aunties this weekend! Ruth C. is away and Liz and Julie are busy- help! Perhaps I will appeal to Aunt Theo that this is her chance to spend quality time with B. Time to go to the gym.
Love the photo, who made the matching outfits? Wish I could wing myself there on the weekends you need help. I had an observation room off my classroom when I taught the Pre-K group. I think it always amazed parents how differently their child behaved when they weren't in the room. With some kids it is just a tricky balance. much love, Di
