Eeeeeeewww!

Aaaargh!!!!! Toby cut his finger in school yesterday and had some blood marks on his pants. He said a lot of it was marker also. He wore those disgusting things back to school today! I returned home from yoga just in time to kiss him goodbye at the bus stop. Dan asked if I would have said anything - I'm pretty sure I would have felt strongly compelled to ask some questions to draw his attention to how dirty his pants were, and maybe what he thought the teacher's reaction might be. Oh, gross. At least I forewarned her that he might be coming to school in dirty clothes and why. Huge "what kind of parent will people think I am?" on this one. Dan actually thinks the school might call me to pick him up for this, but I think there will be no natural consequence for him.

P: choose your own clothes
R: wear clean clothes to school?
I can frame lots of things this way but choosing his own clothes is also a responsibility, getting dressed himself is a job I want him to do. It's possible he might be perfectly happy to have me lay out his clothes. I'll ask him about it after school.
