This year, I had not been able to chaperone for a single field trip for Noah's class. To be fair, there was only two other ones, but I never had someone to watch Elliot. So I volunteered for the final trip of the year, Zoo day, way in advance determined to find someone. Luckily, my sister, Sam, has graduated from college and just finished a long-term subbing position so she was willing to watch E. It was a very hot day. My extra kid had a schedule conflict and was going to meet us at the zoo later in the morning. I understood his mom would call me when she got there and we'd meet up. Easy Schmeasy. I only was in charge of Noah for awhile. I then got an extra kid, since his chaperone's son was sick.
I love volunteering at school. It's really fun and hysterical watching the kids together. They are just so funny. It's also hard work and makes me really appreciate the teachers. They work so hard.

Finn was my "charge" that came late. His mom ended up staying with us for the field trip & we had a great time.
