Almost There...

There are two MAJOR jam packed days left between me and SPRING BREAK!!!  Tomorrow is our Easter Egg Hunt, then Thursday is our Field Trip to Marbles Museum.  If I survive these two days, I will post some pictures this weekend!  Even though it's only Tuesday, this week has already had its trials and tribulations.  Monday (yesterday) was picture day.  However, Miss Jones completely forgot about this since Monday's are always the most difficult day to get motivated to get out of my wonderful bed.  Then today, Tuesday, we had quite the excitement in Miss Jones' Class.  My babies seem to be as clumsy as me, and today one managed to trip over his feet while running...resulting in having to call 911 and an ambulance showing up on our playground...just wonderful.  This is my second year teaching, and my second student to ride in am ambulance because of a leg injury from the playground.  I swear...it has nothing to do with me...it MUST be the playground...especially today, he just literally tripped over his feet while running.  Good news is, he just bruised his knee pretty badly, but to a 5 year old that pain pretty much feels like their leg is falling off.  By the time the ambulance arrived he was standing up and walking on it, THANK GOD!  Last year the result wasn't so lucky...let's just say I spent a whole day in an Emergency Room with a screaming 5 year old who's parents were practically impossible to contact.  Emergency contacts are a serious thing, people...make sure those numbers work!!!  On a positive note, the weather last Friday was absolutely beautiful so I let my kids read to each other outside and enjoy the sunshine.  We call it Buddy Reading.  Wish me luck for the rest of the week, clearly I'm going to need it if my luck continues like it has been this week!

  1. My kiddos love budding reading outside!

    How scary to have a kiddo taken away in an ambulance!

    OMGosh! I completely agree about the emergency contacts. I cannot tell you how many kiddos I have who have no current phone number.
