Ever since Chloe started school she has begged me to volunteer to come along on a school field trip. Unfortunately, with my teaching schedule combined with Tim’s work schedule and having Josiah and Maddie, it’s never worked out. So after 2 1/2 years of asking I was finally able to say YES to help as a parent volunteer in Chloe’s class. It’s hard to tell in the picture, but she was OVER THE MOON excited. In fact she’s been counting down the days. And when I showed up at class today a whole bunch of the kids already knew who I was–which I can only assume was because Chloe had been talking about it. 😉
All of the first grade classes went together to the Old Log Theater to see the play Cinderella. It was a fun field trip and an extremely well done play. The only part I wasn’t a huge fan of was the bus ride. It’s so loud. I’m not a fan of loud. But on the way home I was able to entertain the 6 kids around me by making paper finger thingys (yes that’s my technical term).
Oh, what a good mom you are! It used to be most moms could take turns doing those things, but there aren’t all that many that are available during the day any more.
