Today I Got...

...1. A special pizza from my my now 5th grade students, complete with a lid. I love that they come back to the 4th grade hall and visit me. And give me ridiculous gifts.

 ...2. I also got to come home tonight to this handsome, spiky haired man & cutie chihuahua (the boston terror is here too, but he didn't make the pic.). We just ate some sushi and are lounging on the couch for the first time since Sunday. It's been a long, busy week. We're ready for the weekend 'round these parts! 

Kids Make Me Laugh...

...As I was grading my students' "3 Little Pig" predator and prey stories, I read this sentence. Kids seriously crack me up. They have no clue. So cute.

Wowzers...

 ...Honest and true. I think this article sums up the thoughts of many teachers.

Poop...

...I'm not sure why, but I think the word 'poop' is funny. So do my 4th graders. I found this book on our visit to the library today. Don't think I won't be reading every page out loud to them. Seriously, I wish I had thought of writing this book myself.

The joys of teaching...it's the little things that make my day.
