reward

Six eyes to look outside and check the weather. Come back and report to the class.

Then those same eyes stare up at me asking,

"How will you teach me today?"
"Will we sing?"
"Can I paint my picture of the fish?"

You pull off your shoes and put your socks on your hands and wave to me from your seat, and I just smile, because really, who wouldn't?

You are my morning reward.

Lovely reward for coming to work ready to do your job as you focus on the children. You don't get enough rewards. So a child's enthusiasm is a blessing.

Preciousness. I love the six eyes. There are occasions for six eyes at our house, too. And I love how you teach us what you teach them... and teach us how to see it.

I am so glad that you love what you do. What a blessing.

DeNae left a misspelling and asked me to erase her message. LOL You know, the smart reputation and all.
