Sock Hop

Yesterday, one of the parents in my class dropped off her child with no shoes. She said that she forgot to put them on. Okay, I thought she'd go home to get them and bring them to the class. Wrong! So I had a child with no shoes in my class.

Since yesterday was a day we have gym, I didn't think it would be an issue. That is, until the fire alarms went off. I got everyone's jackets on (did I mention it was in the low forties and drizzly?) and we all trooped outside and walked to our designated area.

We came inside and guess who had wet, dirty socks? She didn't have any spare clothes, of course, I called up front to see if they could find any. Luckily, someone found some in the dryer and that's what she wore for the rest of the day.
