And I can't shake off the embarrassment.

I was collected my 13 year old DS from school. He has autism and goes to a specialist school. Parked in my usual spot by his classroom door.

Sat there waiting when I look up and see my son waving at me through the glass in the door. I start waving back and then blowing him kisses (which he loves, he's very affection). I then realise he's not blowing kisses back which is odd and he's stopped waving....I then realise it's not my son at all but his female 50+ year old teaching assistant.

She was waving at me to get me to come to the door to discuss something. I remained sat in the car blowing her kisses.

Mortified.

Aww bless you that is funny tho. I'm sure she would understand if you explain.She probably realised what happened anyway.

I got out of the car and spoke to her but she didn't say anything and neither did I....she's lovely and fantastic with my son but very serious and not much of a sense of humour.

There's absolutely no way she could of not seen me. Out of all the teachers I go and blow kisses at the worst one..🙄

I suppose it was one of those 'you had to be there moments'. My kisses to her were very exaggerated.

Hahaha!! 🤣🤣🤣 Brilliant!

I’m surprised she doesn’t have a sense of humour, working in a specialist school; we wouldn’t survive without ours in my school! 😉 🤣

She maybe does but I've never seen it. She's absolutely great with the kids, very kind, patient but firm too. I'll maybe mention something to her the next time I see her which hopefully won't be for the next 5 years 😂🙈

So funny, and so toe curling. I guess at least she didn’t blow kisses back.

I think I would have said ‘sorry I thought you were DS at the door’. I don’t think you have anything to be mortified about.

"So sorry, I thought you were a 13 year old boy!"
Don't know what's worse between that and her thinking you're bizarrely attached to her and felt the need to show it 😆.
