Today is a great day (so far).

I kept N. with me during art so that we could spend some time together. I realized that she just turned five in September, which absolutely explains most of her behavior. She's a baby! We read a story together and then she asked me to read her another one. And another one. She told me about her older sister, who she lives with (her "aunt" from yesterday) and her niece.

And I'll tell you something, that mischievous glint in her eye is growing on me.

This morning JM made up a story about cooking himself a life-size gingerbread to play with and making it a boat so that no fox could get him. I encouraged him to write about it and he was so excited. 

Right now the AP is playing Simon Says with my class in the hallway and they just beat second grade. I'm gleaming with pride.

Finally, it snowing cats and dogs. How could I ask for more?
