What the? I totally think you should talk to the Directress. Tell them to check the handbook . . . both items go against Montessori values totally if you ask me?<BR/><BR/>Seriously - I would talk to the teacher.<BR/><BR/>Yours - Jessicajessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16316464685609805737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-81263665554732456372008-10-01T12:41:00.000-05:002008-10-01T12:41:00.000-05:00Well done!

My cleaner knows that if she doesn't do the bathrooms we're all likey to die of botulism and I don't mind her putting stuff on the beds to get the vacuuming done!<BR/>I hate to admit it but most of the stuff that comes home in goody bags "accidently" falls into the bin - and no-one misses them! <BR/>Get some rest, you deserve a good night.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-67930974959308853502008-10-01T12:21:00.000-05:002008-10-01T12:21:00.000-05:00Sorry about your least favorite Aunt coming back t...Sorry about your least favorite Aunt coming back to visit.<BR/><BR/>I am feeling the urge to move lately as well -- wonder if it's b/c we are missing the seasons a bit. Ya know, it was 99* up here yesterday!<BR/><BR/>I HATE, HATE, HATE the goody bag thing. I don't even do them at birthday; I give bubbles or a beach bucket or something. My kids get PLENTY of junk and the trinkets are a pain in the butt.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I hope Carolyn is on the mend quickly.Joy Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12746570281283136391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-40488631680615481392008-10-01T09:50:00.000-05:002008-10-01T09:50:00.000-05:00I think sometimes that is a simple answer to our e...I think sometimes that is a simple answer to our erratic feelings.

And enjoy their candy! I, too, am also surprised at the amount of candy they are getting there to bring home from Montessori. I mean, I know it's the parents doing it (I'm assuming), but when my youngest went to her Montessori school, they said we could bring in one treat for the kids if we wanted, but discouraged anything else.Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08635083407685681890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-57096987786009942522008-10-01T06:46:00.000-05:002008-10-01T06:46:00.000-05:00You mean you found a preschool that still allows s...You mean you found a preschool that still allows sugar/food/goody bag festivities?

You can enjoy being with your children more if you know the house is clean (at least I know I do!)<BR/>And remember (this is from one perfectionist to another)- they won't clean as well as you do. But its a matter of "completion, not perfection"<BR/>Rebecca DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24756113.post-78476217797398693752008-10-01T00:18:00.000-05:002008-10-01T00:18:00.000-05:00I hope you have a much better night tonight!Let me...I hope you have a much better night tonight!<BR/><BR/>Let me tell you about something we have in our house... the candy box. It's a large tupperware container kept up high and out of sight. All kid candy from school treats, goody bags, Halloween, Easter, etc goes into the candy box, where it becomes group property and available to be chosen when it's dessert night. (Special things like Halloween candy, the kids get to keep theirs separate for several days, but after that it all gets dumped into the candy box). Every so often I'll throw out all the icky candy no one wants. And, yeah, the grownups will occasionally eat stuff out of there if we've run out of our more high-quality stash :-). <BR/>Anyway.... best wishes, get some sleep! -Anita R.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
