My lips move, but the kids don't hear a word I say.


This is what THIS kindergarten teacher (and her para) say EVERY morning, twenty-five times.

Did you check your backpack?

Did you check your backpack?

Did you check your backpack?

Did you check your backpack?

Did you check your backpack?

Did you check your backpack?

Did you check your backpack?

Did you check your backpack?

25 times. And why do we do this, you ask? Because we’ve learned that some children will STILL leave something in their backpack that should go to the teacher.

We just didn’t expect it to be a squirming, wiggling meowing item for Show and Tell.

So, after 73 days of reminding children that they cannot bring anything living and breathing to school for Show and Tell, I was trumped by the “it’s “K” day” card.

And even though the culprit VEHEMENTLY denied bringing said kitten to school, he did manage to hand it over to his frantic mom when she showed up to find the KITTY she had been SEARCHING for all morning.



I need a drink.
