Tuesday we had softball practice and I was running late getting to the daycare. When I walked in, Amanda was in my line of sight and had just finished washing her hands. She glanced up and saw me and this look of complete relief came over her face.
I told her and Emilee to get their things and quickly as we were super late.
Once we were in the car, Amanda said, "Mommy, I'm so glad you're here!"
Thinking that she meant in time for softball, I made a joke about how I wouldn't forget about softball. She told me that wasn't why.
"We have a new teacher Mom and she is Eeee-VIL. So here's the thing, me and Camille and Kate and Erin were playing outside and Miss Rory (teacher for another class) said we needed to come inside because she was taking her class inside and where was our teacher anyway? We said we didn't know and went in and then Miss Rory started telling the new teacher about how she can't just be leavin' us kids out there without any supervision and the new teacher is all saying she didn't and then she looks right at me Mom and she says 'I GUESS that my class just doesn't know how to listen.' And I was all like oh no, she didn't just say that and I wished right then that my mom would get here and then I looked at the door and you walked right in mom like a superhero!"
