Oh boy

I went on Natalie's field trip to the Hands on Children's Museum in Olympia today. A whole lotta 1st graders and 14 kindergartners. Oh Boy! It was an experience. I must say that my group was awesome. It was made up of Natalie, a 1st grade boy, a kinder girl and a kinder boy. It was a wonderful mix. I laid down the law right away.

"Hi everyone, I am Mrs Miles and I am your group leader. I know we will have lots of fun but we need to make some rules. 1. your classmate is your partner and you need to keep them in site. 2. we don't leave leave any areas until we are all ready to leave. 3. if you break these rules then time out and nobody gets to play at all. Got it? Great. Let's go have fun.

I didn't have any problems at all. They were so great!

We ate lunch on the Capital lawn and walked around the Capital building for awhile. The kids were actually well behaved. I loved it. Of course I wish I had taken pictures. Oh well.

After all of this and a long bus ride back home I had to dash to get Natalie ready to go to a party. She was being picked up in a Limo and going to the beauty college to get her hair styled. Then it was back to the girls home for cake and ice cream. That girl had a busy day.
