Proud of my KID, as he moves on to second grade.

Instead of choosing between these two journals, I am posting them both.
In the first, I learned Jack sometimes would like to be miner.


In this one, I learned that Jack feels proud when he helps a friend.
I also remembered how much I LOVE the "p.s" statements at the end.



My sweet little boy...I can't believe you will be in second grade.
I hope they write in journals :)

I Scream, You Scream...

fingerprint friday

There is a song by Steven Curtis Chapman that says:
I can see the fingerprints of god.
When I look at you, I can see the fingerprints of god.
And I know its true.
You're a masterpiece, that all creation quietly applauds.
And you're covered with the fingerprints of god.

So look around you and see where YOU can see God's fingerprints.


This may seem like a silly fingerprint to any non-teacher readers :)
BUT, it's that time of the year.

The graduation hats are made:
The bags are ready to collect Kindergarten treasures:
Soon, the room will be empty. And quiet.
(THAT is a fingerprint in itself. A quiet Kindergarten room? Imagine!)
But, in all seriousness, as hard as this year has been, I have 25 set of fingerprints to remind me why I do what I do everyday. And, as challenging as they are, and as exciting it is to start fresh, I will miss this group of kiddos.
I am thankful for my job and the kids who keep it exciting!
