A-

The other day Firecracker came home with an A- on his writing test.  I took it out of his folder and exclaimed how awesome he did.  This conversation followed:

  Near tears he said, "But an A- is a bad grade!"
Me: "An A- is a good grade, Buddy."
F: "No it's not.  It's so much worse than an A+"

Hahahaha!  Apparently, Firecracker is a perfectionist.  =)

Have a great day!

Bulletin Boards

I have told you all that I am a teacher.  I share a classroom with 2 other teachers.  Neither of them are crazy about bulletin boards.  They will make a bulletin boards, but it's not their favorite thing.  However, I LOVE to make bulletin boards.  They are time consuming, but they are a great outlet for my creative energy.  These are my newest creations:

 Have a great day!

Rock, Paper, Scissors

Firecracker has come to love the game, rock, paper, scissors.  He will play it with anyone who is willing.  Well, a few weeks ago the family went to dinner to celebrate my Sis in Law's birthday.  While we were sitting in the waiting area, Firecracker and his cousin, Tank, were playing the game together.  It was hilarious to watch.  They were making all kinds of new items for the game.  Like, "this is a star, it floats above you and therefore, I win." It was quite comical. 

Have a great day!

Veteran's Day

 I'd like to thank all the Veterans that have fought for our freedom.  Freedom isn't free, and I appreciate it every day of my life.  Thank you!

* Side note, this holiday has a great side effect in that we don't have school today ;)

Have a great day!

3 Plus

The other day my Mom was walking through the kid's playground at Firecracker and Sweet pea's school.  Sweet pea came running up to her saying, "Gram, Gram!  I got a 3 plus!"  My Mom looked at the teacher who laughed and said, "She got a B plus on her paper." Hahahaha!  

Have a great day!

2 Boys

Firecracker and Tank, my nephew, are the best of friends.  They are constantly playing together.  Anyway, we were out with my Bro. and SIL the other night and I snapped this picture of them.  I didn't realize just how cute/ funny it was til I uploaded the pics to my computer.  Have a look:

Look at their faces!  They are REALLY into their game. Ha!

Have a good day!

"The Pose"

On picture day at school, my niece, Princess, wanted to wear her Elsa dress.  My SIL let her, but with the exception that if the teacher told her she needed to change Princess would do so without complaint.  After the pictures were over, my SIL asked Princess if the teacher let her wear her Elsa dress.  Princess looked dejected, but answered that she had been allowed to wear the dress.  When my SIL asked why Princess was upset, Princess answered that the photographer didn't let her do her "Elsa Pose".  HAHAHAHA!  Here is an idea of what "The Pose" looks like (minus the dress).

Every time I try to take her picture she does this.....

Have a great day!

Painting Toes

Sweet pea loves painting her nails.  So every other week or so we have a nail painting party.  This one particular week she had gotten some "princess" nail polish.  It was clear and glittery.  Sweet pea wanted to paint MY toes this time.  Since it wouldn't be too terrible, because the paint was clear I acquiesced.  Here is a pic for ya.

Nothing like some good ol' fashioned Mommy- Daughter time.

Have a good day!
