"Je-sus!" Then continued.
I couldn't focus on what she said after that because I was laughing. I couldn't help it - she said it so naturally.
These language mistakes I often ignore, but occasionally it strikes my funny bone.
Teoman didn't come to school today. He's actually been out for week. Not seriously ill, but allergies, to a terrible cough and possible sinus infection. (I say possible because our backup doctor diagnosed it, and she tends to be sessile with the medicines). I brought him with me today because he had a special PYP exhibition. I don't remember what PYP stands for, another educational concept jargon. The pre-school didn't have classes, but parents were scheduled to arrive in shifts and his or her child was instructed to take you around the building and show-off different project work. Teoman showed me the music room and his drawings to different music. He showed me the play area where he did an obstacle course. He showed me painting, cuttings, story time, pictures of friends. His friend "Doruk"'s work before Doruk could properly spell his name and spelt it "Dork" which set me off in another uncontrollable fit.
Tolga had left for the field today and timed his travel so that he could stop and participate in the exhibition by FaceTime, because he doesn't want to miss a thing. Everyone's always impressed with this ... but for Tolga, and myself, it's these parts of parenting we don't want to miss.
