congrats to me...i'm celebrating by sharing celery with the boys!

Congratulations! You have been selected to advance to the next round of the Master’s in Educational Leadership with Urban School Specialization program.

not gonna lie, i was pretty excited to get this email! the next round is a phone interview lasting up to an hour...what could they POSSIBLY want to talk to me about for an hour?! i hate phone talking. well, if i manage to get past that portion, there is still the on-site session. 

yesterday for snack i had celery sticks and humus, and i found out that the boys like celery...i think they like the crunch. whatever it is, they sat in attention while i was eating it.  

mama! what is this stuff?! i LIKE it!

today at school i was waiting for my students to get picked up when i noticed this:

i couldn't get an inconspicuous shot off, but his harness looked just like chaco's.

now, i've seen people use leashes for their kids before, but she was yanking it around and shortening the leash around her hand to keep him close...i really wanted to give her lessons on how to walk a dog because they would probably work for the kid too.


tutoring on capitalization usage went quite well today-i think they learned it (in spite of my computer lack of usage).


i am super excited that tomorrow is my non-workout day! i can't wait to wake up a little later tomorrow morning! this morning i woke up and decided i needed to snooze for another hour, but just after i reset my alarm, and began to doze, i heard a beep. then nothing then about 3 minutes later another beep. the dogs heard it too, but strangely didn't bark...it was the fire alarm. boo. it continued to do this, but the intervals got longer and longer until they finally stopped-i'm pretty sure that means i really ought to change out the battery. tomorrow. 


goodnight!
