Do you ever just get a feeling that it’s going to be a good weekend? You know that feeling, right?
I have that feeling today. Like nothing can get me down.
I think it’s partially because this week is finally over, partially because of the sunshine, and partially because of this song I discovered:
It’s a good weekend song. I’ve been snapping my fingers and doing my nanner dance to it all week.
Love love love.
“Cause If she wanna rock she rocks, if she wanna roll she rolls… oh na na na na na na na na naaaaaa.”
Yeah, that’s a good happy song. Give it a listen!

HOW precious is he??
I bought my tickets to Charlotte this week!
Little Luke will be just about 5 weeks when I meet him.
!!!!!!!!!!
My heart is still bursting with joy for my friend. And this little guy just MELTS my heart.

I am constantly in awe by all the amazing blogs out there in this world wide web. I keep finding new ones I love and people I connect with and I just can’t get enough. I recently found Nicole and The Neesby Lookbook and she’s hosting a girl party Monday to meet and greet with kindred spirits. Kindred spirits, you say? Sounds like my kind of party!
If you want to join to here’s a link to all the details!

And in some final news, I stayed late last night at school because our Spring Open House is coming real soon and my perfectionism is coming into full swing. This is just something that I’ve accepted about myself and in the teaching sense, I’ve actually decided it’s a good thing. These parent events can be really stressful, but also really exciting because you get to show off all the awesome stuff your class is doing. And it’s worth it, you know?
Anyways, I came up with this ridiculous poem for Open House and I thought I’d share it here. The kids will be coming in with their parents and walking them around the room/showing their best work on display so I came up with this little ditty for fun:
Welcome to our 1st grade classroom where there’s so much to show and tell!
Use these clues to show your families the things you’ve learned so well!
The first stop is the place we meet to greet our friends each day.
We say “good morning”, give high fives, and POP! is a game we play.
The next stop is the board that tells the month and day of the year.
You record the days in school here too– are we far from the end or near?
Next show the box that is filled with books of stories that are “just-right” for you.
Explain the steps of the Daily 5 and show them word work too!
And just in case you want to show how good you are at math
Walk on over to the morning message board and help fill out our graph.
And science too! A table filled with things we’ve learned and done.
Check out your plants, there’s magnets too, and books about clouds and the sun.
There’s so much more! Our walls are filled! So take a look around.
Show off your hard work at your desk, your families should be proud!
BOOM. Well aren’t I just a real live Shel Silverstein. I worked a whole hour on it so I hope it’s a hit.

HAPPY WEEKEND, my dear friends. For certain, I am wishing you the happiest. ♥
