Moving on up!

I teach two year olds.  When they turn 2 1/2 they move into the next class up.  Today two of my children moved up, and two more moved into my room.  I was excited about one moving in, the other worried me a bit.  No worry necessary!  I had never heard him talk before, only whine...alot!  But, oh my, he can talk...well!  This week we are learning about snow and ice.  We made snowmen out of three paper circles.  Shapes, color, counting, order, size, location...covered.  :)  They really seemed to like gluing the circles down.  The snowflake stickers were definitely a hit!  Tomorrow I am bringing my ice shaver...we are gonna play in the snow!!!  Here in Alabama, snow is never a sure thing.  And if the weathermen dare mention the "S" word....milk, bread, and toilet paper fly off the shelves!  LOL  However, this week, in the two year old's room, we will have snow, and enjoy it!

Have a beautiful day!

A Day with the Promise of Tornados

The whole area I live in has been preparing for severe weather for a couple of days.  The local weather man is on with their "wall to wall" coverage.  They start this as soon as there is a tornado warning in the viewing area.  They have been on about an hour.  What do I do with the promise of tornados?  Drink my coffee on the front porch, of course.  I love the breezes that come with thunderstorms!  I love the rain, the way it sounds, they way it smells!  I keep windows open as long as possible, makes the whole house smell fresh!  And of course, my wind chimes sound beautiful!
