Babies and Bells

 I know, I know, I should be shunned. I have no other excuse except laziness for my lack of litature. 
 A four day week, easy right?! Pshhhhhhhh, as if (if you didn't originally, read that in Cher's voice from Clueless). It's only day two but I am exhausted! That three day weekend must have given the nuggets super energy, while it drained me of mine. Waking up at 4:15 to workout is getting old, but I'm still doing it. 
 I now have a new found respect for babies. I have a wisdom tooth trying to push through my sweet little sensitive gums and it's making my entire head feel like it's gonna explode! How do babies do it?!? I understand why try are so cranky now! The nugget who screamed at the top of his lungs for 20 minuets didn't help the situation either. A scream that can compete with those movie scenes where a lady shatters a glass. A scream that will haunt me for eternity. 
 Along with the sour comes some sweet. My little nuggets ROCKED their DIBELS testing today. I mean like "BOOYAHHHHH" status! I'm so proud! :)

Today's pockets:
A bell: because a nugget closed our door and it got stuck in the door frame, locking me out of my classroom. I had to pull an operation with a pair of sisccors and some man power.

I'm not worthy!

 Has it really been 490 years since I wrote? Whoopsie! 
 Let's recap! November: Best Friend's Wedding 
Thanksgiving virus. 
December: Two nuggets hospitalized 
End of the 2nd nine weeks
Amazing Christmas earrings everyday 
Ugly sweaters galore
Asked to be in another best friend's wedding
Two weeks of pure laziness
And now we are almost half way through January! The 3rd nine weeks in underway and it's all down hill from here! I have to say that I thought this first week back was going to drag but I must say it went rather quickly! Let's hope the next 7 weeks until Mardi Gras follows suit. Two months with no break is long but after that we just have five weeks until spring break ablnd then five weeks until summer! I can deal with that! 
 Unannounced formal observations should be starting soon, so start praying! As long as it's not the last Tuesday of school again I'll be okay! 
 I obviously don't have any pockets but I can bring you a quote:
Child: "he just called me the most disgusting thing ever"
Me: "he said those words to you?"
Child: "no"
Me: "so what did he call you?"
Child: "girlfriend"
