Z's teacher called

the past 2 nights B's helped w/dinner so we've eaten early, done a little homework & have Z in bed by 8; which is enough time to read a few pages before sleepy time.

so last night after the routine, B & I settle down to watch "Leatherheads" & we maybe get 10 min into it when the phone rings. it's Z's teacher. that's never good. we're only in week 5 & we're already getting a phone call.

yeah, so she's concerned about Z & his behavior. last week not only did he punch L in the nose evidently he also hit 2 other kids unbeknownst to us & today (yesterday really) he threw sand at someone.
ok, was she not present when i was talking to her & telling her he has issues? with anger? & frustration? & explaining why i signed him up for the counselor? did she think i was full of crap? i told them we needed help with him.

& did you put 2 & 2 together "threw sand at someone"....yeah, one would think that would happen on a playground, during recess, right? thought he wasn't getting recess for 5 days? although the office which doled out 5 days of no recess to little one they neglected to inform his teacher who is supposed to send him to the office during recess times.
Great, thanks for all that co-operation...

on a side note, a bit of funniness B shared with me: they were out somewhere & Z said he wanted to get some bird seed (for the bird feeder that my mom got me). B told him no we didn't want to do that & Z asked why. B told him because we didn't want the birds pooping all over the place & besides that Lady would eat the birds. Z said if Lady ate the birds then they wouldn't be pooping everywhere!
I was surprised he didn't say if that was the case then we wouldn't have to buy dog food anymore...
