Listening to my 6yo complain that he has a live today instead of all the lessons being recorded because of some mystery reader this morning.

I’m the mystery reader. 😂
My 8yo sitting back watching this unfold as his brother continues to run his mouth.
Me-Go ahead and log in.
(8yo trying not to laugh)
Teacher-Hello friends, are we ready for our mystery reader?
6yo-😤Yeah but I have NO idea who it is.
Teacher-Mystery reader are you ready?
Me- (slides Chromebook over) Yup!
8yo-🤣
6yo-
I want y’all to know that the shade continued as I was reading. I foolishly asked this child if he wanted to help hold the book as I read.

He took it as an opportunity to air ALL his grievances.
Me-Tameika looked at her belly. How many of you have breakfast in your bellies already?

6yo-Not me. You fed me a banana and I’m still hungry.

Me-😒
Me:...like Snow White.
6yo: I haven’t seen that movie.
Me: It’s really good.
6yo: Why haven’t you let me see it then?
Me: 😒
Me:How many of you have stuffed animals like Tameika?
6yo: I used to have like 23.
Me: That’s awesome!
6yo: Yeah, but I only have like 3 now since you made me get rid of some.
Me:😒😒
Did it get any better? Nope!
But it did also end with a high five and him saying “I’m glad you were the mystery reader today.”

I’ll take that as a win. Kids, huh?🤣💕
He’s making us a breakfast picnic. Is this a peace offering? Should I expect more shade to come when I least expect it?
