of school!! It really stinks right now, because it feels like next week should be the last week of school, but with the late start date we aren't finished until June 4th. Let me rephrase that . . . the kids are done June 4th, but we still have to work on June 5th... grr!!
Yesterday was my "good-bye" at Thomas Elementary. They did a funny little "roast" to send me off to my new school next year. My friends definitely had me pegged:
1) The board game of "Are you Smarter than a 5th Grader" b/c they thought that I might need to study some - ha!
2) A camp survival kit including a wine glass, pretend laptop with nordstrom.com as the screen, they bedazzled a flashlight for me, and painted the Off Skintastic leopard with fringe :)
3) A bunch of school supplies for my new classroom . . .
4) A new spirit shirt for Mathews like my one that I have now for Thomas. My friend Amy makes them and the rest of my team is going to want one!! It's a black t-shirt that says Mathews Mavericks on the front in crystals and then she put a fancy "5" on the back for 5th grade. So cute!!
It was the hardest thing to do standing in front of my friends from the last 10 years and keep it together . . . needless to say I cried and these last couple of weeks are very bittersweet!
I am so ready for summer though and so are all of the kids at school!!!

I still can't believe you are leaving Thomas...sounds like your goodbye was very sweet! Wish I could have been there!
What an emotional day it was. I must say I was glad to not be the only person who cried up there! ;) At least you didn't get your ugly cry on like I did!!
