Valentine's Day

One of my favorite things about teaching is seeing the pure joy that comes so effortlessly for children. Today was a fun day in Kindergarten. We celebrated Valentine's Day today with balloons, cookies and relay races. What could be better?

When the children arrived today, I had balloons and ribbon so they could decorate the room. They had been asking all week about decorating for the party. I never realized how much entertainment and joy a few balloons could bring. They were PUMPED. So was I. There is little that compares to seeing children just be children. They get excited, run around, giggle- all without being self-conscious or guarded. It such a challenge to do that as an adult. For a child, it just comes naturally.

Check out these adorable ones:
They have so much spunk (see second from left), so much attitude (see second from right) and an ability to be themselves with out insecurity (see all, above).

Love them, Love that I won't see them for a week.

Happy Break!!
