#1 - Getting a kiss blown my way from a kindergarten boy walking in line to the bus after school.
#2 - Being approached by an eight year old asking where she could find books on JFK. When I inquired about her unusual interest for a second grader she replied "I just find him to be a fascinating man." Quite so.
#3 - Feeling a shoulder tap from behind and a young researcher holding up her pencil that looked like this:
then asking me if I could go sharpen it for her because it was worn down. She even let me keep the little treasure.
This short stint as a permanent substitute librarian at Bluebonnet Elementary is making me think it just may be worth certifying and going through the two years of teaching. Sigh...so many hoops to jump through in order to have that dream profession...

Oh my gosh!! You got hit on by a six-year-old?! That is awesome. They make the best little boyfriends.
I think you should work in an elementary school. Then when I get my teaching certificate I can teach there and we can be, like, BFFs and stuff. Really. Think about it. I'm not a great listener, but I'm usually a great talker. And I talk about things no one really cares about, and usually I'm happy with just a yes or no response so you don't really have to listen to me, either. Just ask Matt. He tunes me out all the time.:)
What a charming post!
I think your propensity for wearing bright colors would make you an ideal worker in an elementary school, because I think kids can appreciate the appeal.
