Bugs, Grass and Allergies

Standard

Class trip2

While it was certainly a beautiful day to be one with nature, I woke up today with a massive headache and my eyes closed shut due to my allergies.  UGH!

Class trip 3

Upon our arrival, we were greeted by the bug lady. Did you know the trip was solely to look at various insects and bugs? **cricket** Neither did I…sigh. Oh well, I got my bug game face on and was ready. Here is the crew learning what it’s like to see things through a bee’s eyes.

Here are the bug inspectors, checking the swamp pond for dragonflies, spiders, mosquitos carrying west nile virus and other insects.

Your boy Tali 1 took his bug inspecting VERY seriously.

class trip 5

My little dragonflies playing follow the bug lady.

The best part was that Tali 1 was soooo excited that I was there. The parents attending the trip were waiting in another room. When they finally walked us into the classroom, his whole face lit up. His teacher said “If you see your guest here, walk over and stand next to them.” He was so excited to walk over and stand next to me.  The look on his face was priceless. LOL

When it was his turn to introduce his guest, he said “This is my mom. You can all call her MRS. 1969!” You know, just in case those little kids got too familiar with his mama.   :)

We sat next to each other on the bus and all in all, it was worth my allergy explosion to have him look like this on the bus ride back to school…

  1. I got goosebumps while reading – I remember how happy I was whenever my mom came to visit me at school…until I got older and realized that her wigs weren’t so cool. So I would insist that she didn’t wear a wig whenever she came to visit :-) .
    Tali 1 looks sooooooooo happy!

    • His chest was all puffed out. LOL

      The other kids said “This is my mom, Miss Nancy. This is my dad, Mr. Jack. Not him….”MRS. 1969…don’t get it twisted.” LOL

  2. the wigs were so bad in my teenage eyes. We had to have a talk about it. She was hurt but didn’t show up with a wig after that! LOL!

  3. Sorry that your allergies are jacking you up but I know it was worth it!!! Mrs. 1969 that’s right.. don’t nobody call my momma by her first name!!! LOL
