What's going on with Emily

I could write a book! First, she's going on her 1st weekend youth trip this weekend. I'm a little nervous - but she'll be well chaperoned.

Second, the bus incident that I posted earlier. The bus driver called me last night about it. Apparently 10 kids got that "note" because that "area" of the bus was so noisy. She couldn't pick out who was and who wasn't noisy so they all go it. She promised me Emily wasn't in any trouble. But, she says she's trying to enforce a no talking policy because it gets too loud for her to concentrate. I'll leave that one up to her boss.

Third, her school is having a "50s social" Friday after shool. Emily didn't want to go plus she has to be at church at 4:30 to leave for the trip (see above). Anyway, a boy asked her to go to it, yesterday. She said she told him she had to go on a church trip. Good enough! What was so funny is she told her Grandma and made her Grandma tell me. Emily told her "momma is gonna flip." LOL I didn't - I was just concerned that she was polite to the boy.

Her daddy (which I had to tell him, LOL) said "Oh hell no." Emily told him not to worry as she isn't dating until she's 18. Gee - that's good to know! Cause I could date at 16, but 18 is ok too!

And last, I just pulled her report card off of her school website. She has 97, 97, 98, 98, 100 and 100! (consistant? LOL)
The funny part is she has all these great comments, except in 1 class - it says "talks without permission." What I don't get is if that was so important that HE put it on her report card, why hasn't she gotten a lunch detention for it? It think it's a man thing - her female teachers are probably chitchatty, too.

Oh well, I have to deal with that one, but she is such her mother's daughter. LOL I always had that on mine but from most all of my teachers.
