I hope the kiddoes had a great time at the 2012 Pajamarama!  Thank you for all of the very thoughtful and generous gifts. I am overwhelmed!  Tonight I'll be drinking fancy tea from a fancy new mug and noshing on homemade goodies from a fancy plate in a beautifully scented room.  I was stunned by the very generous gift cards. I can hardly wait for the after Christmas sales!  Thank you very, very much!
     It was a very hard week to be a teacher and several times I welled up just looking at their innocent faces.  I really do have the best job in the world.  Mark Twain said he enjoyed being with children because it is an honor to spend time with those who have so recently dwelt in heaven.  I think he had that right. Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy, peaceful 2013!
