He shoveled our pavement bare last Sunday morning when the first snow hit.
can you believe that guy?
I fed him banana bread, but how do you really say thanks. I mean. We got spoiled with a friend like him.

take your niece to work day




Elise is in 3rd grade. She's been dying to come and help me in my class. Today posed the perfect opportunity. She had no school, I had a half day. Win! She's been such a helper. I wish she could help me everyday.

"i'm on the phone"

i have this student.
she spent the greater part of the afternoon with her bookmark pressed up against her ear and her shoulder pushed up to keep it there---a bookmark phone!
as she was working she kept it there like that and giggled and had a fake little conversation. she even told the person next to her to be quiet cause she's on the phone.
"i know it's like..."
"ya, hang on"

it really was too awesome to have her stop.

do you remember acting like your mom on the phone? it felt so busy and important.
it reminds me of this video.
