Primary Therapists

Today was a fairly uneventful day. I subbed in a 1/2 blend for the afternoon at another south Salem school. The kids were sweet, and the stuff I had to do was pretty easy - a little read-aloud, some "health" which was basically about safety, and a little math and sharing and that was it.

The funny thing though was how complimentary these kids were! I think they should be hired out to work as therapists for people with low self-esteem. Seriously, I had been in the room for less than 30 minutes, and multiple kids had told me how they liked my hair, my outfit, my shirt, my glasses, and how I was pretty and nice. And then there was other child who kept randomly hugging me throughout the afternoon. I'd be standing at the door as they were all walking in and he'd just throw his arms around me and hug me. Must have done it at least 5 times. Apparently I just ooze coolness and niceness and the kids just can't help but love me! :)

Their reaction to you doesn't surprise me in the least! You are definitely nice, pretty, have good hair, etc. Those kids were very perceptive. I'm glad you had a nice afternoon.
Love you!!! MOM
