Yesterday one of my second grade classes was bad, and when I reported it to their classroom teacher...she was pretty upset. She has been having alot of problems with them in all classes, but it doesn't suprise me since they were one of the worst classes last year too. As their punishment, she made them write me "I'm Sorry" letters. Some of them were dull, but a few had me giggling. I thought in honor of them, I would make a top ten favorite sorry lines list for today. Here we go. I am copying their spelling too, so good luck reading them. I added my thoughts in parenthesis at the end as to why I chose these ten...
10. I am sorry for being bad. You are evre pretty teacher. (suck-up)
9. I am sorry for what I did. I wot do it augin. (he has no clue what he did)
8. We are so sorry that we intrupet you and got two stripes and you yelled at us. (she meant strikes, I give them three strikes and they are out-I am so mean yelling at kids all the time...lol)
7. I'm sory but I was only talking to you about the art. (this was true)
6. I am sorry that I did not lesen in your classroom and I hred that you are goweng to have a baby and i thenk that you are goweng to have a boy or a girl. (wow, she is a psychic)
5. I am sorry for being rude yesterday. I like you because sometimes you are funny. Your the best artist. And you a good actor to. You always make us do fun stuff! You always teach us to draw cool things. (I kinda like the suck ups, especially when they come from sweet smart kids-this kid was not the problem, nor has he ever been rude to me.)
4.I love you very and think you for staing with me we I cannot breth. (she had an asthma attack that morning and I took her to the office and sat with her till her mom got there with the nebulizer.)
3.I wus in the funt office bcus i em ulrjic to bug bite so I got to go home. (he wasn't even in class the day they got in trouble!)

and last but not least...
1.I am so anberest for my behver I love you so much your the best arte thcur in the hole woulde you pante so pritty your arte is so wonderful. (I AM the best art teacher in the whole world!)
That last one took me forever to figure out that I paint pretty and not that my panties are pretty-which I thought was a very odd and inappropriate thing for a first grader to say to me. LOL.
I bet they are bad again next time.
For family day, we needed something cheap (a.k.a. free) to do this week. We decided to take Jakob to the Bass Pro Shop, since he had never been. We knew he would get a kick out of the fish, but what he really loved was pretending to drive the boats.
This afternoon Jakob and I went to visit Nana. We went to Cheddars for lunch, and Jakob actually semi-behaved. He ate a few french fries and about half of my ceasar salad. Who ever heard of a toddler eating salad!?

Today was my six month appointment with my baby doctor. I can't believe I am already six months pregnant. I feel less terrified about the arrival of Ashlyn, but more terrified about being at the middle/end of my pregnancy. This is about when things started to turn ugly in my pregnancy with Jakob. The good news is this time both baby and I "appear" to be healthier than last time...meaning I am not packing on the pounds, and baby is not already 2 weeks ahead in size-and my blood pressure (so far) is looking great. I don't know whether its because baby is a she instead of he, or if it's a sign I may not get sick this time around. I know my favorite part of the every appointment is hearing her heartbeat. I feel her move everyday now, she is a real wiggler, so its not even a matter of reassurance. It just makes it feel really real to think someone else's heart is beating inside my body. Next month I get my GD screening...so we will see what time has in store for us.
