Wednesday

So I dropped the kids off this morning at school. Anna has had the sniffles this week, but she woke up cheerful and her nose was clear last night, and she did not sneeze one time this morning before school! When I picked her up, her teacher came out to the car to tell me that her nose has been really green and yucchy and she has been sneezing profuse amounts of snot and she has been acting sick. Now I know that it really looks like I knew she was sick and dumped her off anyways, but I really did not! I would not want other kids to get sick, and really, really I would not want my precious girl to be at school when she is not feeling well.
Also, apparently Anna was very offended that they would bring a firefighter/truck to school and expect her to look at it! Jonathan got in the car and was thrilled and started telling me all about it, and she crossed her arms, and said, I NOT like that firetruck! Her teacher had circled back and was coming to tell me that Anna got really upset about the firetruck and they had to take her inside. I was really puzzled. Is she AFRAID of firetrucks? From what I could gather from Anna, she was upset because BOYS like to look at firetrucks, and she is a GIRL and she does NOT WANT TO LOOK AT THAT FIREMAN. I think her teacher thought it frightened her, which I think makes Anna look cuter and less bratty.
The kids are being really quiet right now, and they are in the bathroom, and they seem to be having a cooperative conversation. Now I hear water running. This can't be good. The only thing worse than when they fight is when they conspire together.
