Happy Halloween from the best 2nd grade class!

We had quite the celebration yesterday. Aren't they cute?

little notes

Today as I was grading some math assessments, I turned one girl's page over and saw that she had written me a note on the back of her test after finishing. It said:


we all love you!


I guess she forgives me for having to take away her cell phone toy. It's still on my desk.

Gratitude Today

This week I have had a very grateful heart. Today I am expressing gratitude for:
-Parents that video chat with me and read to my class
-A job at a great school
-28 students that I love so much and who will sometimes tell me they love me as they walk out the door
-A healthy body
-Parents that taught me to save my money
-An apartment to live in
-Extended family gatherings
-Church leaders and conference. I support them in every way.
-Students that love to read. They remind me of myself when I was their age.
-Women that come up to me in the library on Sunday morning and tell me thank you for working today so that they can come do their genealogy work
-A car to drive to work everyday
