We were in L-town over Valentine's Day weekend, which was nice. We double dated with my parents for V-day dinner, went to the mall, and rented a movie. Generally simple things, except when you live in a big city! So it was nice to take it easy. I ended up getting super sick over the weekend, and actually got a sinus infection per the Dr. at Arnett. Yeah.... bummer! I'm still not feeling a 100%. I tell you being around 30 5-6 year olds and another 550 kids on a daily basis really puts a toll on you! I feel like I'm sick about once/ month. Plus I'm exhausted all the time!
Its Tuesday night, which means Alex is busy away being TA. I think he is enjoying it. Its a different experience for him. A few weeks ago (I think it was only his 2nd week of being a TA) he got home fairly late ~9:30 and of course I was already in bed. He came in and woke me up to say "A teacher's job is never done". Of course I chuckled because that may be the biggest understatement I have heard in awhile. At least he is getting a little taste of it.
My school is having a talent show this Friday. Two of my students tried out. One is playing the violin with another kindergartner (cutest thing ever!) and the other... brace yourself for this.... he rapped, yes rapped the ABC's! OMG what a riot! Unfortunately only my violin played made it to the final round to the network wide talent show. My little rapper got stage fright during the 2nd round and didn't really complete his act. Although, it was still adorable! Make note, that this is an original that he rapped and at the end he goes "Respect the ABC's" hahahaha I almost died when I heard this! I'll be going Friday though to cheer on my violin player- wish us luck!
