I was once left in charge of a class of
Literally 20 2-3 year olds.

They were waking up from nap time.
A nap time they went to bed with a
Whole different teacher
Who then asked me
as a favour
To sub for another sub.

I was a dummie.
Huge dummie is more appropriate.

I was 23 years old,
0 children of my own.
A sister in law recently had a kid,
But he was like 6 months old.

I began asking each kid who they were,
Who their sleeping buddy was
And suddenly this easy thing,
It was so difficult.

They didn't know who tf I was,
I didn't know them.

So past me, bless her,
She panicked and did some quick calculations.
She choose to ask the
50 year old teacher across the hall,
For help!

That gal came in like a fecking wrecking ball
A classy one at that.

One shout of "GET UP. PACK YOUR MAT AND SIT."
and past me?
I just bowed my head and said thank you
And I ran out like my rear was on fire.

Bless past me.
