LIttle Red

Last night Little Red (my Ford Focus) was violated. :(

At about 3:00 this morning I heard tires screeching and then I went back to sleep. Well I got in my car this morning to go sub and everything that is supposed to be in my glove box was in the passenger seat or on the floor. I called my grandma because I didn't know if she needed something and forgot to put the papers back. She said that she didn't get in my car.

I then realized that my console was open and all of my notepads were in the backseat along with my cell phone charger. I didn't notice anything missing at first but then I was like wait.. if someone breaks into your car, they usually take cds. WELL... my purple cd case was gone. It is ok.... I had all of that music loaded onto my itunes on my computer :)

I then checked my overhead flap thingy and all of those cds were still there. I guess the people will just be hearing about Jesus and hopefully they will understand what they are doing is wrong!

Just some news for ya....

ps. no windows were broken so I don't know how they got in.

Working...

Today was my first day subbing here in the grand school district of Independence. I was blessed to have Kindergarten. I think that I have made it pretty clear in my mind that I DO NOT want to teach Kindergarten. I love playing with them outside of school but trying to keep them in a classroom all day long and teach them things...not my idea of fun.

Today I had students:
* In the first hr of the day I was assigned another teacher.
* Climbing walls in the bathroom. Not stall walls but actual walls and climbing into the window.
* I was told that I was mean. (That is my favorite comment)
* I had a girl come up to me, her arm about 12 inches from her nose and there was a line of snot connecting the dots.
* One of my students had a nose bleed.
* Had a fist fight and tears the last 20 min of school.
* Sent 5 students to buddy rooms.
* Heard words that would not come out of my mouth.

Remind you...this is kindergarten.

I discovered today that I love teaching students one on one. I love helping students who are struggling and help them understand so that they can get up to task with the rest of the students. I also discovered how much I love teaching overseas. I love that children overseas have a lot more respect for strangers and teachers that come into their classroom.

Only 41 more days until South Africa. I cannot wait! I am so super excited to be on foreign soil again.

mmm yes.
