The list continues...

6) One of my little ladies telling me the story of when she was diagnosed with diabetes five years ago today. "It isn't a sad day for me. But I also don't celebrate it. It just...is." How could an eight-year-old possibly be so wise? She brings me joy each and every day!

7)Another little lady that has the aftermath of bronchitis and whose laugh has turned into something sounding like a 90-year-old woman who has smoked for 70 years. (It is important to note that she is my "giggler" and laughs all day long. I kid you not.)

8) A Robin Hood comic-book project for my big guys. Mr. Fifth Grade came up with the idea to write the prequel to Robin Hood in comic-book form. I have the coolest job ever.

9)A gingerbread cookie from a cute, blonde dude.

10) A note at my workspace:

"The Lord has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy!" -Psalm 126:3
