State of affairs

This is what my classroom looks like as of today... All boxed up and (finally) ready to go (to storage for now). There are twelve years of teacher swag, decorations, nick nacks, supplies, and books in this mess. I took eight hours to go through, toss, sort, organize, box and label it. But, now it's ready.

Ready for what?! ...

Is she still around?!

Yes, yes I am still around.

We have been crazy busy around here, but, as you can see, I am trying to get back into the swing of blogging. I miss the therapy of it all. Face book has been where I've been posting...but, I'm going to make a real effort to blog here, again.

Until the next (sooner than later) post.

Adieu.

Loves

I'm still around...way too busy...but here are two of my loves... :)

Fun with sharp stuff

The boys wanted to do something at my school. Caleb had to do homework first and Owen was upset that he didn't have homework. So, I sat him down with scissors (his request) and a paper towel. I was pleasantly surprised at how well he handled the scissors. Owen was entertained for a good 15 mintes while Caleb and I worked on letter M words. Caleb wanted to cut up a paper towel so he would not be left out. So, fun with sharp objects on Monday. Woo hoo!

Who Loves You?

A much better day..

Passed out in the car after another hard day of kindergarten. :) It was a *much* better day. Tonight he wants to write a "good job invitation..." Such a sweetie.

Caleb's apology "invitation"

Caleb got to the "refocus" chair today. He said he didn't go sit down in his chair when he was "opposed to." He went to the carpet, instead. So, he had a discipline note in his "red folder." So...me, being the big mean mommy, asked him what he should do to tell Mrs. Markell that he was sorry. He wanted to "write her an invitation and drawl her a picture."
Here is his final "invitation." :) I spelled the stuff out on paper-he told me what he wanted to say...then he copied it onto his "invitation." That is, *clearly*, a picture of a heart, Mrs. Markell outside on some grass & dirt ("which is black when rain gets it,ya know"), & the wooden refocus chair. :)

Cherry cheeks

Owen was attacked, once again, by a swarm of mosquitoes. Big meanies make him look like he's a cupie doll with cherry cheeks. Poor baby!

25 days

In 25ish days the love of my life and I will leave for Jamaica. It's time we need. Time we crave. Alone time. Together time. Good, quality, fun time. ... And, we'll be there with some amazing friends. We'll be there because of those amazing friends. As they profess their love for each other, and make thing official, we'll laugh & cry with them. I am so excited that we are nearly there... Ready to play, splash, live & love... In an amazingly beautiful island country.
Just 25 more days! Eeeeeeeeeeee!
