It does floor me what people will say to me in my pre-k class. I love it when the parent comes up and says, "Little Johnny might be a bit groggy today - I gave him some Tylenol for his temperature and he's on about three different decongestants and expectorants. But, he should be fine today." Um WHY is that child in school???

Reminds me of the warning labels on things, such as remove plastic before feeding to child. Because OBVIOUSLY someone named "IDIOT" has tried to feed a child the plastic...*sigh*...we are surrounded by idiots...everyone should be like us. By the way, men are BIGGER babies than women, this week has stunk with the hubby home with gall bladder...he is GRUMPY and I am ready for him to go back to work and I have to do this for another week and a half! :) Ha!

(Sorry, this "improved" Blogger messed up my post. Here's what it SHOULD say)
People often think that librarians just sit at desks and stamp books. When they find out not only do you have to go to college, but have to have a MASTER'S degree to be a librarian they're shocked!
If I could have afforded it, I'd have paid my daughters' caregivers and preschool teachers 10x what they made. Because people who take good loving care of children are worth their weight in gold!!!
