Nostalgia

You know how parents say that they love all their children the same, but we all know they have a favorite? Well that is how I feel. If a kindergarten student asked which class I loved more, I'd totally say that I loved them both the same, but deep down, I think we all know who I would pick.

I find myself trying to find reasons to walk over to visit my third grade classroom (Sorry for bugging Kristine). I know I shouldn't, but I feel like I need to hold onto them a little bit longer. I don't want them to forget about me. Today before school I walked to my car and two of the boys from third grade saw me. Together we cracked sarcastic jokes. I feel like my sarcasm will make a kinder cry, and no one wants that. I have serious issues with not being able to see my kids all the time. I guess they aren't really mine anymore, but I am going to pretend like they are. =)

I think all of the student teachers and I are having a hard time adjusting to our new classrooms. I have talked to a few of them and we all miss our old class. I understand we need to experience upper and lower grades, but it really does stink.

Kristine sent me pictures of me and my third graders from the last time I subbed. I decided to share a picture of me and one of my favorite students. He has such a big heart, and his mom is fun to talk to too. =)
