Three day weekend, all thanks to Debby and Jack. I will enjoy being out of school tomorrow to celebrate your marriage! I hope the weather is great, the guests generous, and the love abundant.
My students wrote letters to their mothers today for Mother's Day. The following is my favorite:
Dear Mom,
Happy Mother’s Day. I hope you have safe trip. You are the best mom in the world. Thank you for everything you buy me. I like when you cook ribs. Love, ---------
Its the simple things, isn't it? I'm starting to wonder what kinds of letters Grant will come home with in a few years. What will he thank me for? What will he love about me? What sorts of strange things will he tell his teachers about home? I know all sorts of things about my students' families that would probably make them blush. I hope Grant and our other children have some sense of discretion.
Today I learned that a game of Monopoly with the assistant principal can make a student's day.
