Let me set the stage...
At daycare each of the kids have their own cubby that has things like change of clothes, his naptime teddy bear, his naptime bedding, his daily folder w/his artwork and other paper items the teachers send home. The kids also get a daily sheet that has good info like when they changed a diaper/potty use, when they eat and how much, when they nap and how long, etc. Its an important sheet to review! It may or may not be on top of their cubby. There are also 2 classrooms, one for younger 2's and one for older 2's - B just moved to the older 2's room last week.
Today I go to pick him up from daycare and he's outside playing with his class on the playground. I go get him and his teacher says his daily sheet is with another teacher in the adjoining class. When we come inside Brenden heads for the door...
Me: Brenden, wait, mommy needs to go in the other room to get your sheet
Brenden: Oh I get sheet mama (starts rummaging through cubby)
Me: Brenden, honey your sheet isn't in there its in the other class
Brenden: No mama, its right here (still looking in cubby)
Me: Brenden I know your cubby is in this room now but your sheet is in the other room
Brenden: No mama, I get it (still pulling all items out of cubby and starting to make a mess)
Enter teacher from younger 2's room with Brenden's daily sheet and hands it to me while B continues to go through his belongings in his cubby behind me. I turn around...
Me: Okay Brenden, we can go now, I have your sheet
Brenden: No mama, Brenden has sheet!
and sure enough, tucked under his arms, what he had been looking in his cubby so desperately for.. the sheets to his mat for naptime... I guess he knew where the 'sheet' was all along and I just wasn't understanding him LOL. Once I realized all that time he was trying to show me his sheets I just laughed my head off
Me: yes Brenden, you are right, those ARE your sheets! Please put them back in your cubby for tomorrow and carry your PAPER (not sheet) for mama.
Brenden: Okay mama!!!
LOOOOVVEEE that little boy!!!!
