You Know......

YOU KNOW YOU WORK AT A DAYCARE WHEN......

-you can show up to work in your seatpants and slippers and nobody thinks anything of it
-you are really good at tuning out noise
-when someone else things a child says "aslgeiwos;h" you know good and well that the child was saying "he took my toy"
-it is very normal to have a conversation about poop at work
-you know every brand of diaper there could be and you even have a favorite
-you spend time googling for Sesame Street clip art
-you buy a brand new set of crayons and markers for yourself at least twice a year
-sure you can quote movies, that is, if they involve a big purple dianosaur or a blue spotted dog
-almost every shirt you own has dried crusty snot on the shoulders
-you tell people you have to "go potty"
-you find it perfectly normal to get puked on
-you see a child face plant into the carpet and you walk away while you tell them to get up, you're fine

I love this post! My favorite is that you can go to work in your seatpants and slippers! I don't even know what seatpants are, but I bet they're cool! :)



Oh yeah, and the "dried crusty snot" mental picture was kinda gross.

Cute, Sarah. I didn't know you worked at a day care, but I'm sure it's fun times. Another title to that post could be, "You know you are an aunt when..." As an aunt of 5 nephews and nieces and one on the way, a lot of that sounded familiar.
