M's Bad Day

M took forever getting off the bus yesterday. O was already up to the house when I noticed M wasn't off the bus yet. I walked down the lane and when I was just about there M got off the bus with huge alligator tears running down her face with a...pink slip in her hand. The poor kid just cannot sit still. She has had a permanent sit up front since the first week of school. The bus driver hoped she would get better (I guess most kindergarteners have a hard time sitting still). But she still can't keep her bottom in her seat on the bus and we have talked to her about it and the bus driver has talked to her about it but I don't think it really sunk in until today. I just held her hand and walked with her up the lane. I didn't say anything. She said its okay Mom you can be mad. I am in lots of trouble. (In between her sniffles and tears.) So yet again we talked to her about sitting on her pockets and wiggling around. (She apparantly does have a bit of her dad in her.) Hopefully this time it will work.
