Kids with teachers vs with mum
I helped chaperone an activity with my kiddos school today. It was to the beach to play games and have a sandcastle competition ππππππ
Of course it was all kinda strict. Kids had to wear hats, specifically school hats so they could be identified, no swimming because the teachers werenβt certified for it, staying in a specific area of the beach.
At first I thought it was so nice, getting to see my kid with her classmates and teachers and being her sweet angelic self ππππππ
Yeahβ¦ an hour in she switched to βHome Modeβ and started whining at me about being bored staying in that area, wanting to swim, etc. She wasnβt alone either, there were 5 other mums there and letβs just say you could easily tell which kids were theirs. One crying about wanting a different ice cream, one constantly asking his mum to let him take his hat off. Then mine coming up to me all the time saying, βWhy canβt I just swim since you can watch me???β. She was grumpy and not very understanding about it all ππππ I veryyyy nearly had to take her for a private chat. Then her teacher announced that I could check her out and take her if I wanted. I think she felt bad for me after all the complaining π¬π¬π¬π¬π¬π¬π¬
Too funny because her teacher has told me multiple times how perfectly behaved and sweet and agreeable she is πππππ€π€π€π€ Now she has seen βMummyβs Editionβ π π π π π πππππ
Anyway she took her hat off and ran free on the beach and we went snorkellingβ¦ life is good again for little miss Eight π π π π π
