I Stand Corrected

I said that there was nothing more exhausting than herding cats in a fifth grade classroom on the next-to-the-last week of school.

I was wrong.
Apparently, there is.

And it's herding cats in a fifth grade classroom on the next to the last Friday of school...
After they have spent 45 minutes at an  AR party...

Doing this
Over and over and over and over and over ...

While Octoteacher balances the shiny red Kodak,
six pairs of eyeglasses, a hastily folded paper fan, and The Incredible Traveling Innie.

I was supposed to be finished yesterday, but

Teachers deserve BIG trophies.

Not only big trophies, but BIG diamonds! Thanks for all you do, Debbie, for the many lives you're touching and guiding.

It's almost over!!
Hang in there :)
I homeschool (maybe you know this) and so I know how you feel, minus 20+ kids ;)
I wanted to let you know I got your entries for the birdcage!
And blessings to you on these the last days of this school year!
