‘Twas The Week Before Christmas, and all through the school, the children were crazy, I was losing my cool! Their papers aren’t finished, they don’t want to work, but when I try to make them, I feel like a jerk. I’m tired, I’m cranky, these kids have it coming, but I stop and think what a scrooge I’m becoming. So I tune out their chatter and I try to enjoy the last few days before Christmas with each girl and boy. They are so excited and buzz with holiday cheer, and then homemade presents begin to appear. Be-glittered and fashioned with stick and glue…and of course there’s a “Best Teacher” mug or two. The last day, they come as candy crazed creatures, but then it’s TWO WEEKS of break…I LOVE BEING A TEACHER!
Birdie with a yellow bill, hopped upon my window sill, cocked a shining eye and says: “What’s going on this weekend Mary…Christmas??” Bee Boop!!
