Never a Dull Moment.

It has been another rough week for the Whitey. More so because of personal issues that I'm working through (and being quite emotional about it I might add). There have been times this week when I thought a smile would never come. However, in my line of work there is never a dull moment. I am dying to share this little gem from the magical land of first grade:

We had just come in from recess and all the kids were being hooligans (as usual) in the hallway. Loud and obnoxious behavior mostly. I was talking to a couple of other teachers, mostly trying to ignore the 60 first graders around me. I looked over and there, sitting on the floor of the hallway, was one of my little darlings. One of my darlings who never sits still. I mean NEVER. He was sitting there amidst all the ruckus, in a perfect "criss cross applesauce" position, with his thumbs together and his eyes closed in a perfect OHMMMM meditation stance. I thought I was going to DIE. I could not control my laughter. We even took a picture of it.

So there. Laughter is possible amongst the tears. :)

I promise a more uplifting post next time!
