Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evolving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
That’s a lot pressure on you. When my grandson started K2. The teacher sent pics to my daughter through out the day. She would send them to me, and oh my gosh how pitiful. I wanted to go get him. He had the saddest looks on his face and I could see a tear on his cheek.
She survived it thank God and the teacher sent her mother the most beautiful photos of her in class, on the playground and during her breakfast. She stated that she surely doesn't have a 'shy' bone in her body. She did really good. Unlike her father when on his first day I had to walk down the hall between 2 friends whose kids also went to that school and you could hear him scream "Mommy" the whole time I was leaving. Then both friends are begging me to go back and get him. But what could I do? That afternoon he got off his bus and was perfectly happy.
Would life be great if as adults we could over one obstacles as fast as kids do. Hearing our children cry after us is heartbreaking. I’m so glad she made it over the hurdle. ❤️
Thank you. I told her it is all a part of growing up into a big girl. She seemed to like that. Her birthday is Sunday and she is all about her birthday.
How precious! I hope that she has a wonderful birthday. I know she is the light of your heart ❤️
