Priorities

Recently I made cookies for the two cookie monsters pictured above. When I asked them why they weren't eating any of them, they responded "Oh, we thought they we were for your students, not us." Ouch! The truth hurts. I put so much effort into my classroom, I forget to do some of the special things for my own precious children. I remember a similar story some years back. I set the table one night using the good dishes, cloth napkins and fun napkin holders. The kids walked in and said, "who is coming for dinner?"

I want to do the special things for the ones I love, not just for guests or my job.

So this week I am going to try and think of something special to do with or for each of my children and for my special guy. I am going to remind myself of my priorities, and these two are at the top of the list!
