Yesterday when I dropped LF off at *care we were greeted by the teacher and about 4 kids. We said hello!
Almost immediately the teacher got my attention…
Teacher: so yesterday, you’ll never believe what LF said?
Me: oh, really, what?
Teacher: as clear as day, she told one of the other teachers to “shut up!”
Me: **gasp** (giggling inside thinking about writing the blog post about this)
Also me: Oh my gosh, I’m so sorry! She picked it from us when we tell the dog to “shut up”!
Also me: I’m so sorry! (still giggling inside)
Teacher: It’s ok, it was just so clear when she said it, there was no mistaking what she said, she’s very verbal!
So, there you have it! Apparently LFD and I need to keep in mind we live with a parrot. When I told LFD about this he said “well, she probably deserved it!” **sigh** He is so thick headed!!!
I will never forget once when I did daycare, the girl I worked with at the time (she only worked in the Summer because she was a teacher) had a splitting headache. She was trying to just ignore it even though we kept offering her Advil & she kept declining, but you can imagine how quiet a room filled with 16 babies under the age of 2 is. She finally groaned “Ok, I give in. Just give me the drugs.” One little guy spent the rest of the afternoon saying “Drugs? Drugs?” LOVELY. They just don’t cut you any slack do they. =P
How about “shut your piehole”?? There are so many things my daughter has parroted that really make me giggle. Well, and cringe at the same time.
Husband’s are totally like that. Mine tells the oldest to push or hit back if it’s done to her. He wants her to stand up for herself. Um, if somebody hits you be the better person and not hit back. What does that teach them?
