My DM came home from my sister's yesterday, and she asked me to hang some things in her closet. While in the closet I noticed a very old leather-like case on the closet shelf that had been on their headboard when I was growing up. I had not seen that old case in years! So I looked to see what was in it. What I found were many of the report cards that my sisters and I received from elementary and high school. (We had no middle schools when we were growing up here in Atlanta. Went straight from elementary school into high school). I called my DDs in to look at them. They were all generally very good. But, shock of shock, I found my report card from kindergarten. I had gotten a bunch of C's! The worst one was the C I got for not working and playing well with others. My DDs howled with laughter and teased me unmercifully.
I hope that I now work well and play well with others.

What a treasure to find Dannie. I wish I go back and see some of mine. All I have is a couple of high school
I think you must have still been a shy little gal back in kindergarten, Dannie, 'cause you most certainly do now "work
And Yes, I can understand how your DD's got a kick out of that!
Can't help but laugh at that myself.
You've come a long way, Baby!!
Celebrating "the reason for the season"!
Isn't that a wonderful treasure to find Dannie? You not "work and play well with others?" You've come a long way baby!!!
Did I tell you I found my mother's report card from when she went to beauty school in 1935? I framed it and wrapped it up and that's what I'm giving my DSIL for Christmas. I'm sure she'll hang it in her salon as she has a photo of Mama Blu from her beauty school days. I always called mom the "beauty school dropout" as she never did continue with that profession.
My mom had not thought of that case in years, either.
Did he get a "C" in conduct for being annoying? That is too funny. I bet that it was only the teacher who was annoyed.
I was terrified of going to school when I went to kindergarten.
