Had to call WAW this morning because 5D got birthday party invitation for a classmate at school for today and I found it this morning. We are both educators and I wanted to know if I should bring a gift or not. Awkward beginning, I said," hi good morning, she said good morning", cheerful but funny sounding. She was about as shocked as me. But she agreed with my solution.
Then talked about 5D counting by 5's to 100 and how she is getting better. She had it when she went to bed last night. She offered suggestions this time and I validated her. I said she had her spelling words but not math. More like her momma instead of me, she kind of chuckled.
Talked a bit about 5D conduct report from yesterday. She spent time daydreaming about me and not doing classwork. WAW said I need to tell her we cannot do those things if she does do her work. I told WAW that I had done that and said Mommy and Daddy will always be proud of you if you do your best. Then I ran my mouth about her story and how it may have spurned from deer in my backyard the other night while she was in the tub. Completely unnecessary...
Then, I basically said I am going to be so late and have to go have a good time at the ball game tonight. She said, "oh I am dreading it" which stunk for a way to get off the phone.
Positives 1) All about 5D 2) pleasant 3) I very much got off the phone first 4) Validated her about how to teach 5D, gift, 5D conduct... 5) She answered and seemed in a good mood...definitely not angry, but not the laughter from the other day.
Negatives 1) Asked her to have a good time at game and she said,"she is dreading it" kind of stinks to get off the phone like that. 2) I ran my mouth to much about why 5D may have been daydreaming. Was only about a 7 minute conversation but that may have been a minute of it.
