They forgot “fabulous.”

According to Em, the words that others in her class use to describe her are “bossy, smart, playful, silly, and strange.” That sounds about right. It led to a good conversation on what “bossy” means.

The words Em used to describe me are “actful(?), respectful, nice, and beautiful.” I think they really should have put “sweet” in Em’s list.

Em’s class is having a holiday party today. She volunteered to bring cupcakes. She ALWAYS volunteers to bring cupcakes. She loves them. So this morning she walked into her classroom with a big container of red, green, and white frosted cupcakes. Says my husband, “Who’s Bossy and Strange now? Huh??!!”

Tomorrow is “read and relax” day, where they’ll all wear pajamas to school. Emily is quite ready for school to be out, and it sounds like the teachers are too.

    I know! Me neither! She wants to wear her reindeer jammies. They’re from last year and are skintight. I actually had them in a bag to go to Goodwill. She wants to wear them tomorrow, and also for Christmas eve, and then I think that’s it for them. She looks like she’s about to bust right out!

    I think there needs to be a Read and Relax day for moms. We’ll all hang out in our jammies with hot cocoa and good books.
