Love the Colors of the Tundra

Seeing all the red has gotten me in the mood for Fall even though it's still a month out. I have been lighting my vanilla chai candles, drinking my chai milk in the evenings and putting on my favorite chunky sweaters.

And to end on an even happier note, my students today surprised me with their ability to hold it together until 3:30 with the less than normal hiccups. Thanks to a teacher that took my ELA class and split it in half- I feel like I can do what I am supposed to do reading wise. This is a full week and my students aren't used to that just yet- but thankfully I can keep reminding them that next week is a VERY short week as we the teachers head into Bethel for District Wide.
