Ok I'm in bed early tonight! You know why? Ok the number one reason is because I stayed home with my stinky butt kid today (and I mean stinky butt.... Will explain later) and she didn't have a nap so she was in bed at 745.... She went to sleep pretty quick, poor sleepy baby! The number 2 reason is because I wanted to watch a lifetime movie!!!! I've gotten so addicted to them! Only problem is they have commercials when they go to commercials I fall asleep and miss the good part! The one on tonight doesn't look very good! Ok now on to my stinky butt child... Well Tuesday she threw up all day, and had the runs. My mom told me how bad it stunk but I didn't think it could be THIS bad... So we leave moms and get almost to the bottom of the hill, and SHE POOPS HER PANTS!!!! She says "I'm poopiiiiiing" I said what? Your pooping? Well stop!!!! Are you still? She said yes and was about to bawl.. And I busted up laughing!!!! Then she laughed instead.. But she had the runs SSSOOO BAD! And it smelt TERRIBLE!! Worse than a dead animal! Poor baby! Luckily she had the poops this morning... But hasn't pooped anymore. So I think she is all better! So this morning I was layin in bed waiting for her to wake up and I was watching tv playin on my iPad and I had it propped up on my leg and it fell and hit my lip and it hurt SO BAD!!!!! I coulda said a bad word! Speaking of ba words... My mom French braided my hair and it hurt SO bad! I seriously felt like I was gonna pass out! I said several bad words I couldn't control them.... My head hurt so bad... It was like I wasn't in there.... I think I almost died! Actually dying might have been less painful!!!!!! Gah! Ok hm what else have I thought about today? I guess nothing.... It's supposed to freeze drizzle In the morning... OH speaking of that colcord is out of school the next two days! Geeeeeeez!!!! So I have to do an observation and interview this week for my class.. I'm so unprepared! Haven't even looked at the assignment .. Oh but in 2 weeks, I get to "Write a letter to the editor designed to educate members of your community about the critical role of child-centered curriculum and play in children's development and learning. Cite specific references and give examples that illustrate your thinking." I am super excited about this!!! I have SSSSOOO much to say on this subject!!!! I may even send it to the editor.... Hahaha jk only kidding! But I've been talking about this for a while now and I'm ready to spit my opinions out so someone can read them!!!! Here's what's strange to me... The other day I heard some negative comments about our school.... I'm gonna be honest.. In my classes, when I talk about our school, I always say we have the best elementary school in the county (other than grove....lol).. I really think we do! Others may not see it this way, but if they seen how much work and money we put into what we do, they would change their mind.... I feel sometimes that I push my kids too hard, but I want them so bad to learn what I'm supposed to teach them... Even though sometimes it just takes maturity to catch on.... Some kids aren't mature enough to learn their letters (or whatever) yet.... Therefore need another year. And by no means is another year a bad thing.... It will only help them in the end... Anyways back to what I was sayin... I don't know much about the upper grades, I DEFiNITLY know they work hard cuz they are ALWAYS at school before I get there and after I leave for quite a while. They have a lot harder curriculum than us for sure, so I guarantee they work twice as hard! I absolutly love where I work! I don't think I could ever have a job that I would love as much as I love this one.... It's just Sooo relaxed and laid back, everyone is down to earth and friendly.... I LOVE my job. I can't say that enough. Why am I getting my masters? I absolutly love what I'm doing..... I'm sure one day it'll get old and ill HATE everyone I work with and they'll hate me back.... Hahahahahaha jk... But I'm sure I'm not always gonna wanna be a pre k teacher. Man I feel like I'm ranting.... That class just opens my mind so much! Brings a lot of insights to me. It's weird this year things are soaking in so much faster with my class.... Seems like when I first started it took them forever for the kids to learn to write their name!!! Right now mine can all write their first AND last.. And we're working on middle name! I've NEVER had them write their middle name..... But they have mastered first and last names.... Might as well give them an extra boost since they have already caught on to that so easily! Ok welp hope my rant isn't annoying.... Oh wait it always is! OH WELL!!!!!! :)
