I believe some celebration is in order!
Anyways, I am happy to report that today was an overwhelmingly pleasant day in 3rd grade! The kids were polite, they listened, and to top it off - they were fun! One of them was quite the jokester, but he actually knew when to cut it out. It was nice. I liked them so much that I let them play head-up 7-up for a while and I gave them an extra 10 minutes of recess at the end of the day. We'd run out of things to do, and it was so nice out, and they had been so good that we just went out and enjoyed it! Now I'm really hoping I can go back there again before the years over, because they surely love me now! :)
One of the activities we did today was watch a Bill Nye science video (on the solar system - made when Pluto was still a full-grown planet!) Thankfully 3rd graders are still young enough to think Bill Nye is funny and not stupid and outdated. At one point when Bill Nye was talking about the moon phases he spoke of a new moon - which solicited a few little gasps and giggles from the girls who marveled that, "It's just like Twilight: New Moon!"
Yes, even in 3rd grade.

I'm so glad you had such a good day. Sounds like a really fun group of kids. Days like that make it seem like easy money. Too bad they're not all like that. Congrats on the 200th! Love you!!! MOM
