Thrown Directly Under the Bus



So I volunteer in Eion's class on Mondays and I was telling his teacher how disappointed he was to miss the pumpkin patch trip last Friday due to illness. She then told me of this great interaction with Maggie on Thursday...

Teacher: Maggie, do you think Eion will be back at school tomorrow? I know he and you Mom are looking forward to going on the field trip.
Maggie: Well she doesn't actually, really want to go. She's just going because she has to.
Teacher: Well Maggie, none of us really want to take 60 Kindergartners to the pumpkin patch.

Way to sell me out Mags. Sweet baby Jesus I need to be more careful about what I say in front of these kids.

I think we moms get thrown under the bus at one point or another. . . it's just a matter of time

Oh my. I think they listen to all the stuff we don't want them to repeat and then tune out the important stuff.
