Green, Yellow, Red Lights....

Apparently Logan's 1st grade teacher is using the Traffic light system to control behaviour. Tonight as I was tucking him in he said..."Mom...if you get a yellow light Mrs. Erwin won't call your mom but if you get two she will!" I asked him by chance if he had gotten a yellow today and of course he didn't ( he is SUCH a rule follower and very quiet at school) but he said that someone did. I got a kick out of it. I asked him that if he got one would he tell me? He said no...and then asked if I would be mad at him. I told him I would be sad (he is just like I was when I was his age...never wanting to disappoint my mom! That look on her face was a much bigger deterrent than any spanking could be!) Here is to hoping for no yellow lights in our future!
