Christmas break




There are few sounds I like better than my husband's car coming in the driveway each afternoon, but hearing the car on a Friday that begins Christmas break? A very, very, very, VERY nice sound. The cheers went up, "Dad's home! Let's play football!" So, after a brief latte, a look over what presents the students gave for Christmas, and a quick change of shoes, the gravel driveway football game commenced.


TOUCHDOWN for Daddy's team

Handy hints for anyone with a teacher's name on their gift list: Trader Joe's gift cards are very nice. Homemade almond toffee is very, very nice. Cards that say, "You are an awsome teacher" are great, but try to spell "awesome" correctly next time. It's the thought that counts, right? Mr. Teacher will resist sending it back with red marks on it. What self-control.
