We have adopted a sweet little girl from Bogota, Colombia! She is our first, and is giving us daily reminders about how expectations and real life don't always mesh. Our whole adoption journey is documented here, so now we want to continue to document our real life with our daughter.

Friday!!
Hooray it's Friday! The first time I've actually had time to sit down on my couch, and desire to write a blog. It was a fun week in kindergarten with lots of fun, tears, and peeing on a shirt! Oh how I love 5 year olds! As I watch the older elementary students (and high school students) I realized I love teaching kindergarten because they love you no matter what and (almost) always do what you say. I love that the "quiet game" is enough to keep them completely still and quiet in the hallway. I love that they are enthralled by powder that turns to 'snow' when it is mixed with water. I love that getting to hold a stuffed penguin is the best reward. And I love that they will come to me and say, with no shame, Mrs. Hamilton I pee-peed on my shirt. Although I loved my week of sewing and baking, I am glad to be back.

I LOVE playing the quiet game with K-2. I'm always amazed at how quiet they get. BEST. GAME. EVER.
ReplyDeletei love when they come to you with a handful of snot and snot on their face and say "can i go get a tissue?" i pretty much gag every time. (okay so maybe this has only happened like 2-3 times).
ReplyDeleteyes, younger grades are the best.
