We were outside enjoying the sun and the lazy Sunday morning when all of a sudden the boys jumped up and started to conference. I would love to know what they talk about, actually probably not. I am sure they are planning a take over so they can control the
dogfood output. They think they don't get enough to eat, like POrky is deprived. At times life feels this way like the dogs are taking over!!!

THIS WEEK HAS BEEN A WILD RIDE, AND THE PICTURE JUST KINDA TELLS A PART OF IT! MY STUDENTS LOVE HALLOWEEN AND AND THE FUN STUFF THAT GOES WITH IT. I LOVE TEACHING IT BECAUSE THE KIDS BUY INTO THE IDEA OF FUN AND FANTASY. OF COURSE IT ALL MEANS EXTRA ENERGY ON MY PART BUT IT IS SOOO WORTH IT WHEN THEY LEARN.

Also on Friday we had a carnival at school, but only for the kids that earned it. It was so great to be able to let the kids just run from activity without a lot of parents around or the trouble maker kids who can't control themselves. They had so much fun choosing what they wanted to do and when they wanted to do it. I think I painted the face of almost the entire 1,2,& 3rd grade!. We painted nonstop from 3:30 to 5:20!

I also made a big leap into the tech world. I bought an ipod nano. it is beautiful now I just have to figure out how to download on it

Happy Birthday to me! I made it to 54 today! yeah. My children have promised me that I would be a gandma by the age of 60. Just six more years to go.
I have had a great day today. Text messages from my kids, phone calls and cards. It is great to know people care. Thank you family for loving me.
