Thank you so much DCD, I really wanted to get up before 7, get myself ready on a school vacation day, only to have you not show up or even text me. I finally texted you 30 mins later and you reply with only two words... I could have really used an extra hour or two of sleep, but instead I was up waiting for you.

When DCM picked up 2 yr old dcg she started acting up (like always) well DCM got up to leave put something of dcg in her bag and of course dcg girlnsarted throwing a fit AND BIT DCM ON HER FACE AND THEN SLAPPED MOM!!!! Whoa I've never seen a kid do that! Really all I did was laugh cause well this I what happens when the princess of the house has no discipline. DCM just told her no we don't do that in a small weak quiet voice ugggggg

That would have been her last minute at my house. I can't be around that. It upsets me too much. She would have to find another daycare for my sake.

How is it MY fault, DCM, that you had to take off work because of snow days, so now you can't take your child to the dr's because you have "no free time" (and god forbid you use your vacation time) to get the required paperwork back to me so your child can remain in care? May be you should start rethinking those "me days" you like to come in here bragging about. I wish I got it, I really do.

I can tell you spent time with your mother this weekend, dcg. The way you came in and said "Hi you little sh!ts!" let's me know that LOUD AND CLEAR!

Only two children today instead of 6, and of course, it's my bratty nephew and the screamer baby.

Why bother teaching them?

Why in the world do these parents ask what we do all day and if their kids are going to learn. I tell them we learn through hands on playing not worksheets and I teach the kids their names the way they will learn in kindergarten. Like "Peter" or " Lucy" I let the parents know that we will work on their name this way to prevent the child from having to completely relearn their name in kindergarten. The kids learn do it great all week at daycare. Then Monday morning its like "PETER" or "LULU" cause that's the nickname. They will have to learn it right when school comes. Why bother? I don't know if this is common or just my lack of helpful DCP, but they are no help at home at all. UUUGH frustrating.

Funny you said that... We call my son "little man" because he was a huge baby at birth. Well, his real first and middle name is Damian Lee H***

Well, I taught him to write his real name.

Second week of kindy he came home and I noticed on his papers was...
Yep...

"Damian Lee Little Man H***. Spelled CORRECTLY.

I left it alone . Not sure how he learned to spell it, I'm assuming the teacher .

But ever since that's what he writes in the name spot

What a day... Bickering, fighting, yelling kids all morning. Then I broke my toe, half of the kids are refusing to nap, and I dropped and broke the tv remote. Awesome. Definitely don't need a break or anything today.

Soo angry with dcb who will be turning 4 in 2 months. He wore brand new cowboy boots today so excited to show them off yada yada yada he then tries to stomp on my 2 small dogs feet and tails with them then his baby brothers (age 1) hands. I confiscated the boots until grandma picks up, and making him shadow me and came oh soo close to calling his mom for pickup. Come on 5:00

Shew! Your Monday sounds like my day today but without the broken toe. All my DCK'S were extra wild today! And to top it off...at pick up time one of DCM's walks in, DCB is playing with a toy and as she tries to take it away so they can leave, DCB runs over to another kid and strikes him in the head with the toy. And DCM just stands there shaking her head, doesn't say one word. Seriously come on. I hope your toe is feeling better!!
