Lifes Like That

My son really thinks that my daughter’s grade 4 teacher is one of the best.  Yesterday both of my kids went skating with their classes and for the first time ever they were both on the rink at the same time.  Toward the end of the skating session my son fell down really hard and bumped his head (he is OK).  But that was the end of skating for him and he wanted to come home.  So, I said I would bring him home, but by him coming home he would miss out on his Halloween party at school.  He wasn’t too impressed with this idea.  So Kara’s teacher told him to come home for a little while and then come back to school in the afternoon JUST for the party.  He thought this was really cool that a teacher was telling him to come home and then come back to school JUST to party, not to work.  So, that’s what we did and the rest of his day was great.

When we got home, he informed me that when he gets in grade 4 he wants to have this teacher.  That’s a pretty high complement coming from him as he is extremely shy and it does take him a while to warm up to teachers.  But, this one stole his heart!
