Fire Truck Friday

Last Friday, April 27th when I picked up the kids from school I heard a teacher talking about having a 'fire drill' at school today and the fire truck coming to school and all because a little boy had pulled the fire alarm.  She was telling this to one of Colton's class mates mom's and letting her know it was not her son.  She said "I would have put $20 on this kid or this kid but it was not either one of them".  I'm thinking in my head 'ok...if it was not the kid standing at the door with his mom...and it was not one of the two other boys that is limiting the number of boys left in Colton's room...could it be my son?'  Well sure enough, I opened Colton's classroom door and his teacher had a huge smile on her face and said "Colton tell mommy what happened today" and I instantly knew and said "oh no...was it Colton!" and she said yes and laughed.  I told I over heard the other teacher talking about it at the front door and wondered.  She said Colton's class was about to go outside and the teacher had all the kids in the buggy but had to go to the bathroom so she parked the buggy by the door so the up front teacher could watch them.  She said she just got sat down and the alarm went off.  Miss Erin (the owner) said they had to view the tape to see which kid it was and she copied what the first teacher said by saying "I would have put money on this kid or this kid but not Colton!".  She said they were sitting there just waiting and Colton looked up and saw the red fire alarm button and probably wanted to know what it was so he reached up and pulled it down.  She said it is not supposed to be easy to pull so she didn't know if we would be mad that he pulled it or happy that he was strong enough to do it!  I told her it was just 'another first' so we laughed!  So needless to say daycare as well as the kids had an exciting day last Friday because they all got to see the Fire Truck!  Now Miss Erin just hopes other kids don't remember how to 'call the fire truck'!  :-)
