me... being the parent... night


Nora's parent night was tonight. I don't know what to think of her kindergarten teacher. I want to say she seems nice.... want to say. I think she doesn't seem mean.... really. I know one thing, she doesn't have that ... mothering... feeling that I want her to have. I ask Nora all the time how things were, and I think she would tell me if things weren't ok. I know that she has already set down disciplinary actions in class. I think it was the second day of school that Nora said they couldn't go out for recess because the class was too loud..... second day of kindergarten? Really? I also know how hard it is to run a class full of kids. I teach 8th grade, I can't even imagine kindergarteners.

Still, I want her to seem kind. I want her to ooze grace and shine funness all over the place. Nora is enjoying kindergarten. I am sure her teacher is fine... I think.

The pic above is of a Kingfisher. I hear this guy all the time on my hikes, but its the first time he has shown his face. Silhouette. Still I'll get him someday.

  1. Just relax! You are the one that oozes grace and shines funness in Nora's life. It's OK if she meets people who don't, right? Keep asking her how school is. She'll tell you. :)

    1. You are so right Keri. Still.... if she's ever mean directly at Nora.... watch out! :)
