Ken and I have been having an ongoing war regarding what is appropriate to leave in a classroom. This has been going on for quite some time now. I found Ken's rolled up, stinky sock on the floor in the corner. "Stop leaving your personal belongings in the classroom, Ken!!!" Do you think he got the point?

  1. Hey Chels:
    Your class looks like alot of fun. They're all so beautiful! It looks like the making of a sit-com! I see you have the yuletide log burning on screen in the background. Did you play the traditional Christmas music for them? Anyway, it looks like a great party. I'm amazed by you and all that you do!
