meeting Mrs. Deyell



Off we went to school yesterday.....Nicholas quite excited to meet his new teacher, Mrs. Deyell and to see which classroom will be his. We thought he would meet some of the other children in SK but they were off yesterday. Backpack in tow, we were off. Nicholas told me on the way there that he was going to be such a good boy and use his manners all of the time.

Well, he was a good boy, a very good boy for the entire visit.....up until it was time to put the trains that he was playing with away. Now, our son has threw many a tantrum in his 4 years but none compared to this one..this was a full blown meltdown! We were mortified and though Mrs. Deyell was comforting and beyond tolerant, she must have been thinking....OMG!! and he's all mine!! hehehe....she MUST have been! I am certain the higher grades upstairs must have heard all of it...I'm sure the Principals heard him, oh probaly the households in the neighbourhood heard and most certainly, the next family waiting to see Mrs. Deyell heard. And I bet their child is a complete angel...lah tee dah!

So, my little JKer, without even starting his first day yet has already lost train privileges....
As my Dad so often likes to point out when his perfect grandchild is misbehaving.....it's all on Johnathon's side where that comes from! LOL. Shawn and I were perfect children, don't you know ;0)
