Tori-isms

Just wanted to share a couple unique Tori moments...

The first happened yesterday. Tori was at Drama to pick her up for dance. I told her she needed to change into her ballet clothes. My students were in my classroom with me when Tori hollers from the doorway..."Mom, get my pants!" All we could see was her arm sticking through the doorway holding her pants.

Needless to say, my students were cracking up as I hurried to shut the door to preserve Tori's privacy. Tori had decided to change clothes right there in the middle of the hallway behind my door. By the time I got to her, she was naked except for her panties struggling into her tights. Oh-my-gosh. Yes, it was hilarious, but she's turning 7 in April! That's just an example of an every day Tori moment. We have just had to explicitly teach Tori to deal socially. Obviously we've got a ways to go in the modesty department!!

And one more...Tori's teacher told me about this one today. Tori was asked to transfer info from one paper to another. Her teacher told her to "copy this". All of a sudden Tori was missing from class. When Mrs. Wibbing found her, she had taken the paper to the office to "copy" it. You've gotta be careful how you phrase things with Tor 'cuz she takes everything totally literally. :)
