A year ago...

Another milestone happened today. It was one year ago today that I set out on my first adventure in the working world. I remember because today is Man Watcher's Day. I can't believe it's already been a year. My how things have changed over the last 12 months. Crazy crazy.

And what milestone blog would be complete without a few moments from my week. Here are the best:

Erik came to school dressed as a ninja on Monday. I think I like him more every day. I'll see if I can get a picture soon so you can see just how adorable this little tyke is.

I was offered $5 to marry a certain third grade teacher. Her class then informed her that she needs to get married because she's lonely - like Picasso in his blue period. They keep telling us we should kiss. I told two of the boys that if they kissed, I would kiss their teacher. They didn't like that idea so much.

The same boy who offered us $5 also said the following to his teacher: "My mom said if my heart beats when I go to the bathroom I have to call her."

An older gentleman that works in the school entered the room the other day and said, to no one in particular, "Wanna see my magic trick?" At which point he proceeded to pull a banana out of his pocket...

Test question in reference to The Emperor's New Clothes:
-Why do you think everyone was quiet during the procession?
Answer:
-Everyone was thinking "What the heck is he trying to pull off?"

I finally said, "Get that out of your nose."

Mr B.: What did you do this weekend?
3rd Grade Girl: We ate bread.

This was on the vocab wall of a 2nd grade classroom. I don't think it was on purpose, which makes it even funnier:
