Meeting at the School

Tuesday night GP and I went to a meeting at JP's school. We sat through a presentation talking about the new technology the school had purchased* the media center* the school web site* cyberbulling* and netiquette(online etiquette). Then it was time to go to our daughter's classroom. We got to see where JP's desk was and all of the different charts with her name on them. The teacher, Mrs.C, told us how JP is the mother hen of the class. That she is always trying to help someone. Yep, that's my daughter. Then Mrs.C told us a story that had happened earlier that school day. The teacher had found a chewed-up, broken pencil on the floor. So she stood in front of the class and told the class how disappointed she was that someone would do this to a pencil. And how wasteful it was. She told everyone that she wanted to know who did this. And that they didn't have to raise their hand right now. But whoever did it needs to come and tell her. Well...at the end of class JP went to Mrs.C with tears in her eyes and sobbed, "It was ME who chewed and broke the pencil!" Mrs.C, GP and I laughed at how cute, innocent and honest JP is.
