So Much to Say

I have always said it pays to have a good relationship with receptionists whether at school, the doctor's office or as I now know--ballet. Miss Ashley as we affectionally call her, really does love my girls. She's so kind and relates to all ages so well. Last Thursday she pulled me aside to say, "between you, me and this desk, Caroline's teacher is very frustrated with her. She's talking non stop in class and stirring the other children up." It should be said, I was not surprised. So, Saturday class comes and I tell Caroline I'm going to wait in the lobby for the hour and if she misbehaves she is going to be sent out. "Caroline", I firmly say, "you cannot chat through class. It is disruptive and you are there to learn." She looks up at me with those big blue eyes and responds, "Mommy, I just have so much to say."
