today was pretty great. it was fun to be back with my kids. 7 were missing, likely because it's only a 2-day school week and parents are likely figuring on starting them up again on monday. we spent time talking about our christmas breaks. we talked a bit about the snow, and the kids were amazed with my (mostly made up) tales of the things i did in the snow. one of my little studs said in an extremely serious spanish voice, "it's always been one of my dreams to see the snow." his face was precious, and i really just wanted to take him to michigan for a bit. i showed them a drawing of a snowman becuase i was modeling what i wanted them to do. even though i made it very clear that i wanted to see what they did, i still wound up with about 15 snowmen drawn on papers. little liars. oh, and one little girl wrote that she went to el salvador, but she was very efficient in her translating and wrote that she went to "the salvador."
it's good to be back.
