I want to be careful writing this so as not to leave the wrong impression. For starters, my boys have always been rambunctous, but they never get in trouble in school. Thomas hasn't ever gotten a color change, and Matthew, from the start of preschool to present, has only had one. Deana, he did get his name tag pulled by a cafeteria Nazi, but even his teacher thought it was stupid, so we won't count it!
And then there is Mary Elizabeth.....
Let's just say, the girl loves to talk. She also loves to be silly with her best friend, Whitney. Yes, before every ballet class, and Mother's Day Out drop off, we have the discussion on how we must behave. She will look at me with her nose squinted and 1000 watt smile promising that she will be on her best behavior. It's just so hard for such a social butterfly!! She has had a few time outs for talking/silliness. Last week, I picked her up and asked her if she had gotten in trouble. She exuberantly exclaimed, "I didn't go to time out! I am SO LUCKY!" Does this mean just that she didn't get caught?
I must say that she is a doll. So affectionate and sweet. It is just a matter of reining in her mouth! She did great yesterday, so I am hoping this is just a phase!

She is adorable....love that, as you call it, 1000 watt smile!
By the way, our grandson was born last week....he is precious! Have a great weekend. Linda
I'm just guessing that maybe she got some of her social butterfly genes from you. :)
The first B I ever got on a report card was for "deportment" - for talking too much, of course!
A girl has gotta say, what a girl has gotta say......I mean we all have blogs don't we?
Isn't it funny how different they can be? Gracie has never had a color change or strike or whatever they call it each year, but I have a feeling Katie will have more than her fair share once she gets to "real school!"
My son made it all the way to the eighth grade before getting in trouble at school.
My daughter - didn't even make it through kindergarten. Nothing serious, just the little things like you're talking about.
But what a precious little girl you have...
