Favorite moments of the day:
*I let the class vote on a name for the dinosaur pointer. The final decision: Master Yoda. I lost my heart to them in that moment.
*While writing a personal narrative about heroes, one student said his hero was his pet hamster. Because it would eat all the parts of his dinner he didn't want.
*I administered a total of three bandaids. I love administering bandaids. It brings me a strange joy, almost as if I had the strength of 12 years of medical school and the healing power of an angel.
*The moment I looked around the room at the end of the day and realized I already couldn't wait to see them tomorrow. They are so cute. Even the one who cried every hour on the hour...for an hour. Even the one with a sixth grader attitude. Even the one who thinks "Voices off" means talk louder. And especially the one who told me I was his favorite second grade teacher in all the world.

I can't tell you how excited I am for this year, and all your other teaching years.
It makes me miss it Ashley, I will have to live through you. It is so much fun.
They sound so cute! I'm so excited for you.
If I had a second grader, I would want them to be in your class. :)
