Quarter of a century

Wednesday is Jessica Sender's birthday. Jess is my best friend and an avid blog reader. Jess, this is for you. Enjoy.

What else do I have for you? Mark's got two things that he said today that are pretty funny/interesting. In art today, we made finger puppets. Mark finished first and ran to the front of the class. He held his green tiger in front of the class and SCREAMED: HELLO ROBOT CLASS! I AM A TIGER. BUT, UH, MARK IS MY FRIEND. WHERE IS MARK? UMMM MARK IS ON A DOUBLE-DECKER BUS. GOODBYE ROBOT CLASS. That made me giggle. I usually sit with him at lunch to make him eat his kim-chi. The past week or so, we've had this conversation. M: Teacher, do you like Japan? K: Yes I do. M: I do not like Japan. K: Ohhh, why? M: Because Japan eats Korea. K: Ohh. M: Do you like Korea? K: Yes, I do. M:Why? etc etc etc.

We had a field trip to Canny Village. I believe they talked about why you should recycle. Pretty boring.

Me and Tom. He was giggling through the entire performance. It was cracking me up.

Robot Class. Mark, Amy, Daniel, Tom, Jenny, Jessica, Sally.

Daniel's SWEET new fire shoes. Yeah, your eyes are working. They do light up.

My favorite part of the field trip. A rhino made from Cass cans.

Thanksgiving on Thursday. I hope you enjoy time with your family and turkey. I think I'll probably ignore that holiday. I mostly hang out with Canadians anyway.

December next week. Weird. It's getting cold here. There was ice on the walk to work yesterday. I'm not ready for that nonsense.

Happy happy holiday season! I love you and I miss you. Also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESS!!!
