Happy Valentines Day!!! Today I went to Prairie Christian School (PCS) and read a book to their kindergarten classroom. 1) This was the assignment I was really struggling to understand that my aunt Renee helped me with, and 2) Renee helped arrange this book-reading opportunity - well she actually did a lot more than just help! It went really well. There were some awkward moments at the beginning before they became comfortable with me, when I would ask a question and they just stared at me silent. They soon warmed up and engaged to the questions and provided interesting stories of their own that related to the book. The book was If You Give A Pig A Party. Ironically the teacher had just read them an If You Give A... book to them yesterday, and had at least 3-4 others she just got from the library.
Today I wore my yellow minion shirt with a red tie covered in white hearts that a kindergartner gave me last year for Valentines Day up in Canada.
After leaving PCS I headed to school / work. I worked today, but work is technically at school. I worked form 10:30 am to 3:30 pm in the busiest Preschool room, ages 3-5, mostly 3-year-olds. They were all quite hyper and most of them had already handed out their valentines - I found a small pile of them for me on the teacher's desk. Some of the kids had been their from 7:30am - and they were all quite hyped up. To add to the bonus of the day there was "treats" for the teachers in the break room and the lounge that consisted of chips (2 kinds), salsa, guacamole, and cookie cake. Plus Reese's Peanut Butter Cups for the student workers. As usual, the day went really quick and sure didn't seem anywhere near five hours. God is Good!
