Gotta Love Kids

Today one of my second grade girls was reading a book to me about a cat and mouse. She stopped in the middle of reading to tell me a story. She said, "On T.V. the other day I saw to mice on top of each other, you know like boyfriends and girlfriends do. They were having "XOX". That's what I am supposed to call it, "XOX", you know like hug, kiss, hug."

How do you respond to that kind of story? I wanted to die laughing. But instead I just asked my little girl to finish reading her story.

Kids are hilarious!

I'm Alive

I was just hiding a while, but now I am back. Okay actually I've been at school teaching. If you want to know how my teaching life is going, just tune into my other blog to embrace the life of a special educator.

Tonight is Open House at school, so now I have to go tidy up the room.

Would love to write more, but I have a headache and don't feel like it now. So deal with it.

Thanks for reading. Oh wait, I'm the only one that reads my blog. LOL. So, if you are actually reading this then please give me a shout out!!

Once Upon a Time

Once upon a time, in a land far away, a beautiful,
independent, self-assured princess happened upon a frog as she sat
contemplating ecological issues on the shores of an unpolluted pond in a
verdant meadow near her castle.

The frog hopped into the princess' lap and said, "Elegant
lady, I was once a handsome prince until an evil witch cast a spell upon
me. One kiss from you, however, and I will turn back into the dapper, young
Prince that I am, and then my sweet, we can marry and setup housekeeping in
yon castle with my mother, where you can prepare my meals, clean my clothes,
bear my children, and forever feel grateful and happy doing so."

That night, on a meal of lightly sauteed frogs legs seasoned in a white
wine and onion cream sauce, she chuckled to herself and thought, "I don't
think so!"

Topless

On Saturday I got together with a couple of friends in the evening. One of my friends had recently gone to a wedding. I was asking about the bridesmaid dresses, since I am a bridesmaid in 2 other weddings and trying to find a modest dress. He described the bridesmaid dresses in the wedding as: Topless. He really meant strapless. Nonetheless, it was funny. Not the modest dress I was looking for. What a wedding that must have been, hehe Topless.
