I started yet another art project with my kids today...which is a big deal, because I consider myself a very academic minded teacher and although I love art, I don't always make as much time for it as I like. We're making butterfly magnets. I found this great poem to clip onto the clothespin.
A child is a butterfly in the wind:
some can fly higher than others:
But each one flies the best that it can.
Why compare one against the other?
Each one is different.
Each one is special.
Each one is beautiful.
(We love poetry in our classroom...so attaching a poem is perfect for my babies.)
I had to spray paint the clothespins for them. Matt went outside to hit a few golf balls with Blakely, and I got started on my own project.
FYI...Wal-mart has the cutest flip flops this season. All of the teachers at my school are sporting them. My support teacher and I were actually twins today in our matching black flip flops. I also have them in pewter (my fav). Here you go, mom...she requested a picture.
Also, I wanted to mention the book, Plan B by Pete Wilson, that was featured on Kelly's Korner.
I am going to purchase this soon. The video spoke straight to my heart and I can't wait to read it!

Looking forward to watching Idol and Glee! I just heart tv shows! I'll also be cheering on my favorite, #55, in softball!! I hope everyone had a great Tuesday. I had a big smile on my face this morning, watching some of my kids grin and run to me, when they saw I was back at school. Hearing, "You're back, I missed you! I knew you would be back today, do you feel better?" was like music to my ears. The hugs were great too. I am certainly blessed.
