I feel this freedom in my soul that I haven’t felt in a loooong time.
I am on my first official, real live “summer vacation” of my adult life. Being a teacher is dang hard work, but for the accomplishment you feel at the end of the last day, and the relaxation that summer will bring, it is all worth it.
Yes, summer. I’m thrilled we’re together again. Stay long and stay sweet.
Today is my last day of school!
I’m going to miss these little friends of mine next year. They were an awesome bunch and I’ll never forget ’em. Truly, they will hold a special place in my heart as my first class at Green Meadow School.
To my students:
We’ve cared so much for each other, and it’s hard to say good-bye. I have loved being your teacher this year, and now I will be your friend for life. As the Uncle Elephant story goes, “They were wonderful days. They all passed too fast.”. I hope you will take some wonderful things from our year together, and keep them in your heart always. Have a terrific vacation. Read lots of books. Writes lots of stories and poems. Discover a world in a grain of sand.
Happy reading always,
Love,
Ms. Burns
What a weekend. Summer days are here again and this one was the perfect start to summer. Saturday we went up to Salem to enjoy the morning at the Peabody Essex Museum and to see all the history that the town has to offer. Then we spent the afternoon and early evening up in Rockport getting a taste of goodness at the ocean.
Happiness.
And I love it.
Happy Father’s Day to my wonderful and amazing dad.
I couldn’t have asked for a better, funnier, braver, stronger, more perfect dad.
I love you!!
