- boys bickering, tattling, & pecking-order-figuring like girls usually do (wow, didn't expect that one!) "He better quit looking at me or I'm goin get him." "He's messing with me." "He said a bad word." "I'm gonna fix him if he don't quit messin' with me." and that list goes on & on & on & on...... I swear I'm going to see them pee-ing on things next to mark their territory. Oh brother!!! And I usually prefer a classroom full of boys over girls for just that reason, but not this year I guess. :)
- knife brought to school
- my daughter volunteering today :)
- lots of whining and shouting of my name over & over & over from some kids
I kind of forget every year how much work goes into these first few weeks, how icky it can be some days, and how tired I am at the end of each day. Guess it's kind of like childbirth. :)
But what beautiful children you had after the pain of childbirth!
ReplyDeleteYeah, that's true. I will again, this process is just so painful at this time of year. Just please keep reminding me of that. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Momma!
The first six-nine weeks are always the hardest. They're the ones where you're laying your foundation. Stay strong!
