You would think that becoming an adult exempts you from participating in Holiday programs...but no. I got to sing a little, I got to speak a little, I got to turn beet red a little. This week although there is vacation seems like it is going to be very busy. I cleaned up our apartment some tonight.

After school today I went to a pet store with a wonderful kid to buy a new pet for the classroom. What is a science room without a pet? So after we looked at ALL the animals and discussed them in detail we bought a cute little baby leopard gecko. I have to say that the experience and the kids enthusiasm just re-enforced for me why I do what I do.
