Day 21 - Today I am most thankful for creativity and the job that allows me to go with it. I found an amazing book at Barnes and Noble over the weekend about the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. It told the history of the balloons. I read it and had to have it for my class, so I spent the entire weekend planning activities for the week. Yes, I know I should have taught about the pilgrims and indians, but the balloons were waiting and they never get taught in classrooms. So, I brought it in with Youtube videos, design a balloon contests, persuasive writing...it was fabulous!
Day 22 - I'm thankful for an amazing group of parents at my school! They sent all the staff home with a pie to show how thankful they are for the work that we do for their children. Love that mine was a pecan pie - a black bottom pecan pie to be specific - loaded with chocolate chips! Thank you parents!
Day 23 Today I am most thankful for not having to set an alarm clock for the next 5 days! I love what I do, but I absolutely enjoy my time off. It was a nice gift to not have to wake up at 4:45am today. Although it was earlier than what I would have liked (7:00 am thanks to a little pup), it was a nice change. I woke up and eased into the morning with a great cup of coffee and snuggle time with Taku.
