Oh My!
Ok here is one thing you hope your child never does in Kindergarten. Especially at a Christian school. Everyday after school we parents let the kids run around outside to "blow some steam off". Well yesterday one of the girls came up to a mom, said something and then the mom took off. She came back with her daughter saying, "I know you did it your shoes are wet." I'm thinking to myself what? She must have run through some of the flower beds or something. She then looks at us and said, "My daughter just peed over there in the flowers." I smirked (I could do this of course because it wasn't my kid doing it). So I though all had blown over until I get an email from their teacher asking me if I had seen or heard anything about this girl dropping trousers and peeing on the school grounds. Ugh! I explained to hear that yes, I had heard it happened. But I also heard the little girl say, "but daddy does it in the woods." Oh my!

Hmmmm, let's see. These are 5 year-olds we're talking about. They make embarassing mistakes. Period. Christian or not, we've all gotta pee, sometime.
Hopefully, someone (maybe her mom? the teacher?) can explain that there are very limited places to do this, her father's habits notwithstanding. (Honestly, though, the kid was thinking. She picked the flower beds, which is the closest thing to the woods on a playground.)
But the teacher emailed you guys and asked directly? Nothing like being asked to rat someone out. Especially something embarassing. Since you were directly questioned, you didn't have much of an option, short of lying. She could have just asked parents to discuss proper places to pee, and do the same in class.
Yeah, I know we all basically feel that way. But then I thought "what if caleb did that." He knows better than to do that and he knows he'd get in trouble if he did. UGH! But since it happened after school I don't think she should be punished by the teacher. But it's gonna happen anyway. It's funny how since it's some one else's kid we're more understanding and lenient than if it were our own.
