After last week's shenanigans, we decided that this week would be Sophia's first time in the nursery at church. After signing her in (they took pictures of all of us!) and dropping her off, we had a wonderful church service. I missed having her with us, but it was also nice to just focus on the music, sermon, and worshiping God. We were anxious to pick her up afterward and to hear how she did.
They said she was an absolute "angel" and that she had them laughing so hard. Apparently, two little boys who could walk tried to push her in the swing. The two teachers said she gave them a death stare that screamed, "Do it and die!" when they came over to her. One of the teachers checked her paperwork at this point to see how old she is and was shocked to see that she is only 3.5 months old. They pretty much couldn't believe that such a little girl could have such a huge personality. They were still laughing about it when we got there to pick her up!
We can only imagine the look she gave them. We've received similar looks from her before. I can imagine it looked something like this...
We have laughed all day about her nursery experience. My question is, at what point does she become the nursery bully? I mean, this was her first day, and she already thinks she is the boss. She tends to think she's the queen of whatever situation she's in. When do we reign her in. Coming from someone who was labeled at "saucy" as an infant, I am not surprised our daughter is an absolute mess. I am pretty proud of her bold personality, and I hope it saves her from ever being stifled throughout her life.
I am positive there will be many more nursery stories in the future...
