OpponentBoy

So, today was another day full of laughter in my classroom. The day was going along smoothly, and the kids are getting to know me just as much as I'm getting to know them. It's proving to be entertaining!

Popkid still wants a Pepsi. I'm still not caving. I'm pretty sure he's taken up residency on another planet, as I never promised the little people Pepsi. Of course, I didn't have my Pepsi on the table today like I did yesterday, so he couldn't take it. Forget the fact it was on my desk, but he wasn't that quick to notice!

Smartkid made me laugh today, as he came in and sat down. We were discussing KU versus MU, and he said, "I like KU." I told him I was liking him more and more! Then he followed with, "Since I like KU, can I have a Pepsi?" I replied quickly with, "Nope." He just smiled.

Finally, OpponentBoy was my first true connection in my new school. He came in today ON PURPOSE with an MU shirt on! He was smiling as he walked in, as he knew I would given him a hard time. Of course, I couldn't let the kid down! We made a deal that when sport seasons come up, we will wear our opposing team shirts on the day of the games, or the Friday before the games. I really connected with him, which was REALLY COOL.

I tell ya...

Life.
Is.
Good.
