another twinning day!

When teachers buy matching t shirts, the likelihood is higher to twin. A student game me an end of year gift of matching sunglasses and headband. Stephanie and I wore our Kerfluffle shirts today ❤️

A couple more joyful notices were first graders doing their end of year books. They warm my heart. 

be the light!

 

My beautiful friend Amy who teaches right next door and I were twinning today with our Be the Light shirts. The snack was a birthday snack by a wonderful third year named Bridjett. 

hey June

 

happy 122nd birthday Grandma B

The world was a different place 122 years ago when my Grandma B was born! Thinking of you dear Margaret. We’re getting a nice rain right now. I hope our plants will get their fill 🌱

cabin time

We got up early and got up to Snowbank at about noon. We spent the day opening everything up, moving some wood, getting the dock and walkways in (the lake is high) and doing some cleaning. We watched the San Antonio Spurs beat the OKC Thunder for the western conference finals. 

great read

Just finished another great read. I love the focus on friendship. 

9 years

This message posted on my brother’s story is just too perfect! 

Being a little two-year-old who carried around a green button in his pocket pretending it was real and asking all the neighbors if they wanted to see my pet toto. I have always felt that the turtle was my spirit animal. I’ve been fortunate to have countless real pet turtles in my life. 

Today has offered a range of emotions. I spent my last day with my students as after tomorrow, I will be officially retired. It has also been nine years since we said goodbye to my dear dad. As I sat outside enjoying our farm, I couldn’t help but think of Dad. I am positive that he had something to do with sending this beautiful young lady across our driveway just to say, “Hi!” We miss you, Dad! Can you see my pet turtle?

amazing field trip and senior walk through

Thrilling day at Kinni State Park and having the seniors walk through.
