Kids are a Trip!!

Ah how I've missed my students over break. And the teachers too. This morning before writing, the 3rd grade students were allowed to talk about their holiday break. They all went around the room and talked about the loot that Santa had brought.

One of the teachers in the room told us she watched more football than she ever has in her life. I told a little about what I did. And then another of the teachers that is in there during that time told us how he had a contest with himself to see how much he could eat and he won every time. He said the other contest he had with himself was to see how long he could stay on the couch and watch TV.

To that one of the third graders oh-so-seriously exclaimed in a surprised voice, "Mr. K. how can you live with yourself?!?!?!?!"

You can probably figure out the reaction of the teachers. We all had smiles on our faces the rest of the morning.
