Squiggly Worms

With spring break a week ahead I have started to noticed my kiddos have turned into squiggly worms. Who can blame their bright and shiny faces as they look out the window on this bright and sunny day thinking about all the fun they will have a recess. In order to give them a teeny break before coming back to earth (reading) I let them chat about what they were going to do over break and it worked like a charm. Just one or two minutes of chatting and then to reading land we went.

    Squiggly worms longing to be outside - great image. I know how they feel, too. Good luck keeping them down to earth for the next few days before your break!

    I think teachers feel that way too! I also find that a little chatter time helps my students settle down again.

    Hello!!!
    How are you doing today, I guess your are doing well?
    My name is Victoria, i was diagnosed of multiple diseases, herpes virus was among and i was meant to take drugs as prescribed by the medical doctors. One day, i came across a post on the internet that says, there is a solution to almost all your problems that there is a cure for herpes Virus then i tried it and it work perfectly. Contact the Doctor so that you can differentiate between Doctors.

Gratitude  On this last day of the blogging challenge I woke up feeling grateful. Grateful for the opportunity to participate in this challenge that forces me to find small parts of my day that stick out just enough to write about it. Grateful for waking up on this beautiful island on day two if our spring break vacation. Grateful for all the people I have around me everyday. Grateful for the opportunity I get to sit with the little humans and enhance their already wonderful minds. Grateful for my beautiful little family. And most importantly, grateful for this wonderful life.

“You don’t sound like your name is Ana.”

My husband and I have pretty tricky names. Tricky for others to pronounce and even trickier when people try to spell them. We are really spoiled with delicious takeout options  in the area where we live and will oftentimes order in on the weekends. I’m usually the one to place the orders via the phone because I have dietary restrictions (low carb diet). When placing the orders I always tell the person on the phone my name is Ana just to avoid any confusion and it works like a charm. This morning was different. I was up pretty early feeding my niece and my ever so thoughtful husband asked if I wanted some breakfast takeout. We usually never order out for breakfast but today was different. We were too tired to cook. He dials the number to our favorite breakfast spot that’s about two minutes away from home. He places our order and at the end the person on the other line asks him; “what name should I put this order under?” He replies without thinking; “Ana...” We hear a long pause unt...

Heaven... I’m in heaven

Today I spent the day in heaven. My Brother and sister-in-law agreed to let me babysit my brand new 6 week old niece, Alivia. I woke up at 6:30 in the morning after only having slept 4 hours to do my weekly house clean up so that i could dedicate the entire day to snuggling my beautiful niece. And boy did we snuggle (among other things)  We had a fun photo session, multiple feedings and a ton of snuggles. Nap time is the best part. I cradle her in my arms and I am in heaven listening  to her breathe and catching little smiles as she dreams little baby girl dreams. Reminds me of the song Cheek to Cheek  by Fred Astaire. “Heaven, I'm in heaven,   And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak...” I love you, Alivia!
