Well, I finished Water for Elephants. It was such a good book. I completely fell in love with Rosie. She is an elephant. Some of Rosie's experiences were based directly off of events that happened to a few other elephants in the 1900s.
Every time I finish a book I wish it would go on. I really wish that J. K. Rowling would keep on with Harry Potter. I could read about those characters forever. Since it has ended all I can do is reread the series so I do.

An update about daycare. Everything has been going so well (as far as I know) for weeks now. Wednesday I was in the room (granted it was a chaotic day because the infant room flooded from the rain Tuesday and we were moved to the young toddler room) and that woman mistook another child (Catherine) for Charleigh again. I was giving Charleigh a bottle and talking to another teacher on the other side of the room and this woman has Catherine in Charleigh's bed, with Charleigh's pacifier, and Charleigh's blanket. I realize this because she is patting "Charleigh's" back and telling her, "It's ok Charleigh." I stood there thinking this is not happening. I am watching this delusional woman truly believe that that baby is mine. I told the teacher I was talking to to please let her know that that is not Charleigh and remove the pacifier and wash it well. I told the owner... again. She told them to really pay attention to names blah blah blah. WTF! When I called back and she told me this, I corrected her. She didn't misread anything. She picked up another human being and thought it was someone else. I told her that I guess that would have gone on all day. What else is she not paying attention to? My Dad suggested that I ask the daycare if they would trust her with their books. I doubt they would let her handle their money so why do they allow her to handle completely dependent human lives? Although I know this isn't a reading problem, I did all that I feel like I can. I ordered 3 bibs with her name of them, 4 bottle labels (the little bracelets for bottles), 1 tag for her diaper bag, and had 8 onesies monogrammed. This is a fabulous Child Care Center, except for this woman. The way they are handling the situation is causing me to lose faith in them. I don't know where I'm going to go from her, but I want to strangle her.
I might have to go purchase that book because I've been looking for a good book to read, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read that book either, so I'll put it on my list.
ReplyDeleteI know you'd hate to have to search for a new daycare, but I'm with you. I don't understand why those people can't straighten this out.
