Yesterday was the first day of preschool. Todd dropped off and picked Ty up on his first day. I met up with my boys for lunch after. I asked Ty, "how was your first day?" enthusiasic response: "I did not get in trouble" followed by darting eyes. Do men not pick up on this??? I asked "what did you do?", "nothing!" he said. Todd was giving me a crazy look and said "didn't you hear him, he said he did NOT get in trouble!". Seriously. After some prodding I was still making no progress and decided to make some phone calls that night. Shortly after we got home I got a phone call from one of the other moms. "Did you hear about preschool?"she asked. Crap.
Apperently Ty was coloring on the walls. (side note, it is a cooperative preschool, and was held at Becky's house.) I feel horrible, here she has 6 four year olds and my little dork is writing on the wall in her dining room! Becky is not the most forward person. She didn't want to have to call me and tell me. She did anyway. She said she didn't want him to get into trouble. Too late!! Anyway, I guess when he got caught, she told him he was not in trouble, and that they were going to go over the rules again. Hence, the response, "I did not get in trouble." He totally thought he got off scott free!!! Some days you are so proud of your kids. Some days. Well, I guess we try again on Thursday.

Oh that's fantastic! My friend and her fam came and stayed with us about a year ago. Her little girl colored on my walls 3 different times and my friend didn't punish her at all. I was a bit peeved.
