One More Down

So, week 2 is officially over. It feels like it's been months. Here's a conversation I had with a kid today...

Girl: (squeezing glue) Mrs. Baker, does glue come from cows?
Me: (trying hard not to laugh out loud) What makes you say that?
Girl: Well, it looks like it would. It doesn't taste like it though.
Me: Honey, we don't eat glue.

Here's another...

Girl: Mrs. Baker, do you like "Skrimp" (aka shrimp).
Me: (again, laughing on the inside) Skrimp?
Girl: Yeah, you know, like fish and "skrimp"?
Me: Oh, yes, I love SHRIMP!

A magic trick was performed in class today. He thought he was a real magician...

He puts some coins in both hands and shakes his hands. He then takes the coins in one hand and makes a fist. The other hand is out straight like I'm going to give him a five. He says, "The money has disappeared" (note that I am hearing the money clinking together in his other hand). So I act surprised. "Oh my gosh, where did it go?" He says "it's gone!" Then, he puts his hands back together and he says, "here is is". That sweet baby really thought he was doing some magic. In his mind, he was!!

I really need to write down more of what they say. They are so funny! I'm so excited about my group right now. I have 15 kids and they are all so different. I have some that are already writing. I have a smart little group! I can't wait to see where the year takes us.

As far as my family, Kaden has been pee peeing in the potty often. The other night, he went 9 times!!!! 9 times in like 3 hours. Oh yes, it was a fun night! He went a Ms. Sharons's 4 times that day so it was a busy day for him.

Wade is doing great. He did go to do bloodwork the other day and went to ask when he could get his little port in his chest out. They told him they will probably want to leave it in because he may do more chemo. That sucks! I know he's exhausted and was really hoping that last time would be the last. We'll just keep praying about it.
