The Weekly Hoot
April 22- April 28, 2019
Greetings All -
Happy Friday! Wow what a stormy night and eventful morning getting everyone out for field trips, rearranging egg hunts, etc... Good thing we have a four day weekend ahead. We need it! This is one of my most favorite times off during the school year. Holy Week at our church is beautiful and we have at least four get togethers to go to over the weekend. Jesus, family, and friends...that's what it is all about right??
I appreciate how much fun most of you had with the Peep War. Definitely a few things to tweak for next year, but it was hilarious for sure! I put in your boxes a little Easter Happy today. In case you didn't know, you have to scratch off the gold seal to reveal your "prize!"
I wanted to share a little something that is happening in my family with you. When Morgan married Kenny, she became stepmom to a teenaged daughter, Jenna. This past month, it has become necessary for Kenny and Morgan to seek custody of Jenna for awhile. Jenna's biggest concern has been leaving her school before their state testing because she knows how much the teachers count on her and she doesn't want to disappoint them. Jenna's school is about an hour and a half south of where Kenny and Mo live and Morgan teaches about an hour north. BUT because it is so important to Jenna that she makes her teachers happy and not disappoint them, they have managed a way for this to happen. I say all of this to let you know that you should never underestimate for a second the power you have in these kiddos' minds and hearts. Most of them would walk through fire for you. They want to please you. Sometimes they don't know how, or they can drive you insane, but for the most part, they never want to disappoint you. For the next six weeks, the kiddos, the deadlines, the STAAR, the "end of school stuff" is going to drive us crazy. When it starts getting crazy, just breathe in and out, take an extra 15 minute recess on the back field if needed, and remember that these kiddos love you and so do I!
Everyone have a great Easter!
Love to all,
Marcy
