And we Got a Fifer!

Daycare has been precarious at best.  We've pretty much hit, kicked or bitten everyone in the classroom, including baring our teeth to our teachers. *SIGH*  But on Tuesday......taaa daaa... a Fifer!

A fifer?  The kids get stars as rewards for good behavior.  If you get five, you get a prize from the prize bucket. I wish I had a prize bucket at work.  Cause you bet your sweet patootie I'd get all five stars and I'd pick an awesome prize like a day off or an ice cold Bud......but I digress.  Alex got all five stars on Tuesday! He was so proud of himself too! And the prize bucket was glorious (well to kids like Alex it was) and he picked a yellow smiley face rubber ball.  Which I immediately thought the dang dogs are going chew the heck out of it....but ok.  Plus he got to go to Culver's and get ice cream chocolate.

Yesterday he got 4 stars. We blew it in the last 20 mins of class with a meltdown! And chasing the others around the room trying to hit them.  I guess if one is going to blow the prize bucket, you might as well blow it big huh?

Today is the zoo. Is there any hope for five stars? First meltdown will be the butterfly exhibit......he looses his mind in the butterflies..........
