More Elayna stuff

[shadesong]

So when we picked her up yesterday, we noticed that two of her boyfriends Jacob and Patrick, were now in her class. Jacob was actually the first kid we saw... blood spattered all over his new white uniform shirt (see! white shirts + kids = bad idea!), clutching an ice pack to his nose. He had apparently run face-first into another kid while playing with a football at aftercare.

It didn't hit me til this morning....

Elayna's boyfriend has a football injury.

I couldn't stop giggling about that. Poor Jacob. He's the jock, and Patrick's the nerd.

But, yeah. On the way to the bus stop this morning, we were discussing her day yesterday, and she was relating that having her boyfriends in the class tended to distract her. I told her, "Don't get distracted by boys! That was a problem for me, too!"

Elayna: "How was it a problem, Mommy?"
Me, after discarding so many possible answers: "Ummm, well, I was so busy hanging out with the boys that I didn't get my work done as much as I should have. And I got in trouble."

She is just so very much like me...

See? School uniforms or no school uniforms (my kids wear white shirts too, buy bleach in bulk is all I can say!) ... she's her mother's child, and she'll be fine, even in a society trying to help us raise little automotons. :)
