Today's Happy Day: Miss Mackenzie

Days Left: 83

Today was no ordinary Monday, that's for sure.

This week, we start state testing at my school. Not only that, but all my students must have forgotten their specific roles in my classroom. my usual clowns were well behaved, and my well behaved kids forgot their ears at home. It was just one of those days. So, what did we do? Rocked a few reading and writing lessons, did our usual guided reading, but with a twist. It worked for all parties involved, and I got to just go through the day completely unaware of what would happen next. 

So what's my happy moment? Hard to choose. When I'm having a hard, long, otherwise un-joyable day, I take out my phone and I flip through the photos of things I love, things I've written about or people I see less often than I prefer. Today, I flipped out my phone and I saw the most darling photo I took while FaceTimeing my frands back in Oklahoma. 

Miss Mackenzie is articulate, well-spoken and a tell-it-like-it-is individual. She will let you know when you've looked better, and always there to ask twenty questions to try and cheer you up. She calls me "Aunt Noodle" and likes to also send video messages about her life. Needless to say, the homegirl has more cool stuff happening than I do in her world!
