Seriously though, first graders, what a riot!
Every. Single. Day. Without. Fail. When coming in from recess, there are a minimum of 2 tattles. Usually more... either way, here is a rundown from today:
Kid in high-pitched super whiney voice: "He put my coat in POOOOOOP!"
Me in a calm non-yelling voice: "He what? I'm sorry that happened. Are you sure he did it on purpose?"
Again with the super whiney: "Yeeeesssss! He put it in POOOOP!"
By the time we get inside, the story has been told by at least 4 different children and the adult who was on duty. And then...the real comedy gold begins.
I call the darlings over who are involved and talk calmly.
"I've had several reports from students you put her coat in poop. I'd like to give you a chance to explain. What happened?"
"Well, I saw her coat in the trashcan and I took it out. And then"
"NU-UH! He put my coat in poop and then he put it on his wiener"
(looking appalled...) "I DID NOT DO THAT! I DID NOT PUT YOUR COAT ON MY WIENER. I did put it on poop. I'm sorry."
During this exchange, it was quite difficult to maintain my professional demeanor. I had to cover my face to keep from busting a gut. Ah, the life of a first grade teacher. I wish you could have seen the dramatic facial expressions and heard the exceedingly emphatic twang about "pooooop".
And now, Ways to know your teacher loves you:
If you buy her a medium shirt from Abercrombie & Fitch for Christmas and she is wracking her brain trying to figure out how to wear it and not look like a giganto pink puffle. She probably thinks you're great, especially if she's lucky to fit an extra large from Abercrombie & Fitch. Does A&F actually even make XLs? I think they might be "size-ists".
Enjoy your day. I hope you got a little laugh.

Drama Queen
Dramatic, Emphatic, Completely erratic
This is me to a "t"
Unique from the moment created
Thankful
Grateful
Tryin' not to be hateful
Can you capture it with your camera?
Psh. I'm too fast.
The moment has passed
Arms like a marionette
Legs like a spider
Bending
Theatrical expression
Each day is a show
No two in a row
Bless the Savior
for my crazy behavior
Saved me from my silly
But lets me be me <3

Jesus > Religion
Beautiful. Brings tears to my eyes because of its truth... Thank you, Jesus.
How can you say you love a God so real
And then hurt people with things you feel?
With hard words you're willing to condemn
And leave them helpless & drowning in their sin
Jesus called us to love them & show them His mercy
To reach out and touch them until His truth they see
Be fervent in prayer and patience
Wait His will out until things make sense

Every day may be your runway... but what are you showing? Love Jesus. Love others.
