'nap town
so.
i took the shorties to annapolis! we saw the may baskets and took a short cruise down the chesapeake. but the highlights were meeting mayor ellen moyer, eating ice cream at storm brothers and playing on the kick-arse playground that has been rebuilt downtown!
the kids were in heaven. they asked the mayor very good questions like, "how do you take care of your community?", and "are there any loose criminals here?", and "what is the hardest day of your week?"...i was so proud.
yup.
when we got back from our trip i asked them to write one thing that they learned or that was memorable to them about the day we had...most of them wrote: annapolis has a lot of good ice cream and we met the mayor.
honestly. we went on monday and they are STILL talking about the ice cream. they even memorized what flavor each other had...("daniel had banana and malika had vanilla with sprinkles...")
so.
you know i am putting pics below. how can i not? jeez. these kids are priceless. wonderful.
they. are. my. heart.
Wow, your kids get to do cool things, I wish you had been my teacher!
ReplyDeletethe funny thing is...she is the sweetest girl in my class! she is so shy and quiet. sometimes, she breaks out a little from her shell, and she picked this opportunity to flaunt that! i really am so proud of the righteousness that has exuded from her this year...she has come a long way!
