I joined Twitter with a teacher account this week and my kids went crazy. They were so excited. It made my week! There’s a quote that says something about kids won’t learn until they learn how much you care and I really believe that. I’m always looking for ways to connect with my kids and show them they I care about them.
Look at these tweets from my kids…this is just a sample of why I LOVE my job. (Selfies were taken BEFORE class started, FYI.)
This one cracks me up…I was walking over to the selfie when she took it.
My in-laws moved in with us this week while their house is being built. My MIL loves to clean, do laundry and make dinner. It’s awesome!!!
We had two snow days this week. Yes, you read that right. It’s the middle of March and we had a huge ice/snow storm. I was able to get caught up and a little ahead which was nice.
Even though I hate losing an hour for the time change, I love that it’s still light out at 8:00 p.m. We even got out and played basketball this week. You know, when it was 40 and sunny the day before the snowstorm.
I took a nap yesterday. I never take naps. It was awesome.
We had a lull in sports this week. We only had one night of soccer and one night of Scouts. It was nice to have a break!
Last weekend Matthew competed in Pinewood Derby district for cub scouts. He earned 5th place which is wonderful. But he was devastated. They go by average time over 5 races and he lost by 0.015 seconds! Can you believe that? He won each of his heats so he thought he won…his little disappointed face broke my heart. But we went out to dinner and he had a sleepover and all was forgotten.
What made you happy this week?
