quotes of the week



A tender mercy today I read my patriarchal blessing and found something new that I never thought of in a certain way. I love reading my blessing often because there is so much to learn and look forward to by being obedient and faithful to Christ. I will just share a line "I bless you to be a builder of testimonies in the hearts and minds of youth." That is a testament that I am where I should be. I love children it is funny to think that I am surrounded by children with both of my jobs and I am going to school to be a teacher. I guess I am just drawn to children and the peace and Christ like spirits they embody. I can't wait to be a teacher and someday be a mother.

Dance Concert




Tonight I went to the Vibe Concert with my mom and Tad from SYTYCD performed. It was a great show we had front row tickets and Tad performed 4 times. During one of Tads solos he did a backflip off the stage right next to me and then smiled and gave me a high five. Haha it was really fun. By the way I am going to SYTYCD Auditions in Saltlake on February 26 to watch dancers audition. It will be awesome!

This week at work.....

So today at work this boy Jaden asked me and Simone (the other aid) "Are you guys married?" We both laughed and said nope. And his response was "you need to get married today, go find someone to marry today." Haha I laughed so hard. I guess that has been a normal question that he has been asking everyday to Simone. So great. Oh and my favorite day of the week at work is Thursday when we have music time and the kids all get up and dance to music, you would be surprised the moves these kindergartners have they are hilarious.

Cuties

This Thursday at work the kindergarteners we learning about penny's and how they were made and who is on them. We continued to tell them that Abraham Lincoln is on the penny and we asked them who is abraham lincoln and one boy raised his hand like he knew exactly who he is and ssaid he is the prophet. The teacher another aid and me smiled and had a good laugh. So cute :)

Oh the stories

So I have many stories at my work that I could share but sadly I don't remember a lot of them. I need to be smart and write them down when I get home. I hear the cutest, funniest, and saddest things everyday. One sad story from this past week is one of the little boys in the kindergarten class gets frustraited really easy and acts out like swearing, hitting, and biting which brings me to my story. This little boy gets in a tuft with another little boy that loves to talk and has such an attitude. So last week after I left this little boy with an attitude makes the troubled boy angry and and so he acted out and bit him on the cheek. Now this bit was bad the next day it was purple and had teeth marks all around with blood. So sad. I wasn't there for the incident sadly my friend the other aid was by herself and had to deal with the whole ordeal at lunch. I have no idea how she did it I don't know how I would react in that situation. Scary, something you don't want to ever have to deal with.
My other story something that makes be laugh is another boy who is just a hoot loves to talk and thinks he knows everything about everyone. He needs a snack at recess everyday because he gets super hungry. So one day I was ready to give him his snack but he needed to get his coat. So I held his handful of cheese its and walked out with him to recess. We then sat on the bench out side so he could eat his snack so he goes on to tell me about random stuff like his dad knows my dad (He really doesn't). Anyways I ask him how do they get the holes in cheese its of course he has an answer for that haha. He goes on to tell me that the people that make cheese its get worms and they eat through the cheese its and that is how you get the hole. I go on to ask is there worms in the cheese its box? He says maybe a couple but they get most of them out and said that he needed to look in the box at home. Haha I couldn't believe that is what he came up with.
Oh kids I just love there cute, fun, and sweet personalities. I really take it as a blessing that I get to be an teacher assistant for a kindergarten class because this is exactly what I want to do. Even though it is challenging it is rewarding to see there faces when they learn.
