I was reading my sons journal from preschool the other day and was reminded of a funny story. Each day the teacher wrote a short paragraph telling what kind of day each child had that day. If there was a problem it too was recorded.
Ben had a little troulble listening that day...When Mrs Dolly asked him what the problem was he responded
I couldnt find a picture with cotton ...but this will do.
"You see this cotton in my ear (he had an ear infection). Well I can only hear half of what you are saying. I am making good choices today and I am only hearing the good things you say." When she pressed further he said " I heard you tell us to line up to go outside, but did not choose to hear you say it was time to quiet down."
Thankfully Dolly saw a bit of humor in this and we were not asked to find another school. I was a little embarassed that he would come up with such a thing...wonder where he gets it from? Certainly not in my gene pool, must be from his father. By the way that is Ben.
