2010 Day 5

Sooooo...funny thing...which I guess is kinda my Happiness Project moment. I'm a teacher, therefore I always have papers to pass out. Most of the classes I had students who wanted to volunteer and they were passed out end of story. Get to one of my last classes of the day and I hand a stack of papers for a student to pass out. She looks at me, looks at them, and then I moved on to do something else, assuming she would do it. Next thing I know she is calling student's names and making them come to HER desk to get their papers...and ya know what? Every one of them did!!!! : )

Another funny moment is when Sammy was sharing food. She is a very generous and sweet little girl. The only downside is when she thinks that you need more and shoves it into your mouth. Then she pulls out a Santa hat, puts it on, and in her cute, tiny voice, says Ho! Ho! Ho! A-DOR-A-BLE!!!!!

Poetry:

I learned today about the different types of sonnets. When I think of sonnets, I think traditional Shakespeare, which is what my 8th graders will be starting with this week. Now I won't be writing a sonnet tonight, but soon...

Clip-Clop, Clip-Clop
the sound my heels make
Clip-Clop, Clip-Clop
oh, how my feet do ache!!!

LOL

Okay, but seriously...

Little birdy on my sill
Spring is almost here
Two more months until
I see the ocean clear.
(That one should be titled "Ode to Spring Break in Oregon with my Little Baby Brother".)

Th-th-th-that's all she wrote, folks!

S-
