This week I’m thankful for…

• cherry flavored soda
• Siri
• cheeseburgers on pretzel buns
• pumpkin shaped candy corn
• walks with Jack the dog
• my husband, who holds me until I fall asleep
• The Writing Project
• the fact that in one more day I will no longer be master teacher to a student teacher.  Seriously, I shouldn’t mentor anyone.  Ever. Again.
• my teacher friends who have taken a sworn oath to repeatedly punch me in the neck if I ever take on another student teacher
• pink carnations from my little ones on Think Pink Day
• writing with my little ones who constantly surprise me with their wordplay
