Fwd: Check in

These are the things I cherish and want to brag about. Last night Myles asked me to call his teacher because a few kids were breaking her heart and he thought I could help. I sent her a quick note. She responded below.

Wow,  way to get to my heart.  You would have been so proud of your sweet son yesterday. He is the voice of reason and fairness.  I lost my cookies when several kids just wiped their mess on the floor instead of actually helping.  It struck me as so incredibly disrespectful, I called a class meeting and we had a deep discussion.  The talk turned to lunch recess and the 'Land of NO' which is the way some kids feel about the strict policies of the ladies monitoring lunch recess.  Myles said, "Mrs. Reichel lives in my neighborhood, and she actually is a really nice person.  She even has kids!" It was adorable, and it added the thought that everyone has a life outside school, and sometimes that life affects your school persona (as in the case of bullies).

You are very special people! Thank you for reaching out.

Myles and rosie boobie trapped the whole upstairs of the house today with thread. It was unbelievable. Then they took it down without prompt. Why? So they don't hurt the Easter bunny.

My moments like this are numbered. I cherish them and their sloppy beauty completely.

Booby traps!

It appears that Batgirl had enlisted the help of some masked specialist to set up booby traps all over the upstairs. Should prove interesting at bedtime tonight!

She is the best.
