Class reunion


I've just spent the last little while on my high school class reunion's message board, reading what everyone has been up to over the last ten years, and it is pretty amazing. I'm further encouraged that when I'm teaching kids, my own or other people's, and they're driving me nuts, I can just remember that in a few years they'll be traveling the world and using their talents to do incredible things.

In honor of the homeland, I posted this picture that my brother sent me. A reminder of the time a moose walked up behind me, at least this close, as I was getting on the bus. I can't wait to visit NB again this summer. There's just something about going home. :)

When are you going to NB? We're going to try to go up for Beulah, since family will be gathered then anyway. Sure would be great to catch up with you!

Simile Metaphor Collection

Elijah after running: My heart is beating like a coconut rolling down a hill.
Elijah on urination: Pee is like horses galloping out of the gate. Once they get started you just can't stop them.
Elijah: If school were a human I'd give it a wedgie.
Elijah: I am like a hot rod and I just want to be a plain old Ford
Elijah on the fruits of the spirit: I've got them all covered except self-control. Its like a tiny green tomato and the rest are all big ripe ones. Especially love. Its like the biggest tomato we saw in the garden tonight.
