Davis' first day of kindergarten went well. The teacher said he had a really great day...BUUUUUUT...
Special Ed Teacher: "He had a little accident on the playground. That's why he's in his change of clothes."
Davis: "No. It was the green tunnel. It was all wet. Really, really wet. Like, this big wet."
SE Teacher ('it's ok that you had an accident' look on her face): "It's ok, Davis. We're going to keep working on reminding him to tell us when he needs to go."
Me (in the car, driving away): "Davis. Ugh. Why did you pee in your underwear at school? Why didn't you tell your teacher to take you to the potty?"
Davis: "I didn't peed in my underwear."
So, I start digging through his backpack to investigate and find that his shorts and underwear are, in fact, just wet with water. No pee smell. Just water.
What a way to start elementary school! And it's not a big deal at all, but after the horrible experience I had with his dumbass teacher last year (I love being able to say that out loud now!), I made a promise to always speak up for him. There was a note in his folder from his para-pro letting me know about the accident and, under it, I replied, "It was actually just water, but I really appreciate the note."
He had a great day, though. He said he did hard work and fun work and went down the slide behind the pretty girl.

I literally was laughing out loud while reading this to Chris. Sweet Davis! I can't believe that they didn't believe him when told them it was just water! I would have been upset about that, too. I'm glad you sent the note back to the para-pro! Good job, momma!
He looked so cute and excited! I'm glad I have 2 more years before going through this! I'm already having separation anxiety just thinking about it!
Awww way to go Davis! He is getting way too big and grown-up looking, geez! Glad he had a good first day!
