I love my job

A student brought me a paper that she filled out and put in the front of her notebook at the beginning of the school year.  She said that it motivated her all year long.  

This is why I do what I do.  I was so touched and inspired.  I love my job.  :)

Memorial Day

We had an impromptu BBQ today with some friends and family.

Esteban and Maya, our friend's daughter.  He is the baby whisperer and he had her asleep not long after this.

Our niece Allie playing with Suzy our dog.  Both dogs are so good with kids.  They had kids chasing them around, pulling their ears, and spraying them with bottles.  They never once reacted any way other than running away.

I brought out some Tupperware and water for Allie and Jada (Maya's sister) to play.  It kept them involved for hours.
