As Emma and I were washing dishes together, I was asking about how her day was. She told me she couldn't tell me, but that she would write me a letter. So she slipped upstairs and after she came back this is the letter she wrote...
In case you don't read Kindergartner here is what it says...
"I had a bad day today. One person stepped on my fingers, it hurt, ow! And someone hurt my feelings. So is that a bad day?"
I hate when you have those kind of days! Not only do people physically hurt us, but emotionally too, all in one day! Bummer. I asked how her feelings got hurt and she said that when she was first in line then one girl said first isn't the best and that last is the best. Bummer deal :)

Hope today is a better day, Emma! Grandma and Grandpa Rose love you!
Dear Emma, some days are like that for all of us. Keep that pretty smile and share it with someone else who looks like they are having a bad day also. It will help the hurt go away!
I think it's really neat that she came up with a way to communicate with you besides talking about it.
Life stinks sometimes -- that's just all there is to it. I need to remember to give my kids an extra hug when they've had a bad day instead of telling them to suck it up (figuratively) like I usually do.
School is MEAN!!!! Don't you hate that they have to grow up!!!!
Poor Emma... sounds like a rough day! I'm impressed she wanted to journal about it though... :) What a smarty pants!
