This year the school planned the Mini Society on the same day as Kindergarten Graduation.... don't know why they did that! We had to go early before school to help them set up and it was cold and over cast and a huge storm was predicted to come. But they still insisted that they were going to be outside! So we got them set up, I ran home and dug out our canopy to try to keep them a little drier, came back, got it set up. Went home and got a phone call from Micailey about 15 minutes later that the wind was so bad that all they could do was hold on to the canopy or it would blow away, even though we had tied it down. By the time I got to the school, it started pouring down! Everyone's stuff was getting drenched! They had people scattered all over the school field. I grabbed a couple teachers and told them this was nuts and that it wasn't safe (there was even thunder and lighting) and that it was going to a huge flop and miserable and could they please just go set up in the school corridors and along the hallways. They finally agreed and every one bolted inside! By the time we got everything in there we were all drenched from head to toe! It will be quite the memory I'm sure! But after all that was over, it turned out to be a fun day for her! She and a friend sold treats, snack, pop, and candy, and painted finger nails on the side.
Good job Micailey on your successful 5th grade Mini Society!
