Yay! I'm glad your conference went great! And yes, parents that bring pie are extra awesome. I guess that parent knew you didn't have any "pie shops" by you! :)

"People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered; forgive them anyway. If you are kind, People may accuse you of selfish,ulterior motives; Be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies; Succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; Be honest and frank anyway. What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; Build anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, there may be jealousy; Be happy anyway. The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; Give the world the best you've got anyway. You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God; It was never between you and them anyway. " - Blessed Teresa of Calcutta (a.k.a. Mother Teresa)

Forgotten Language
Once I spoke the language of the flowers Once I understood each word the caterpillar said Once I smiled in secret at the gossip of the starlings And shared a conversation with the housefly in my bed Once I heard and answered all the questions of the crickets And joined the crying of each falling flake of snow, Once I spoke the language of the flowers How did it go? How did it go?

The Enchanted Forest
The Storyteller's Creed by Robert Fulghum
I believe that imagination is more important than knowledge. That myth is more potent than history That dreams are more powerful than facts. That hope always triumphs over experience. That laughter is the only cure for grief. And I believe that love is stronger than death.

WONDERAMA
Dwight rules!
I wonder if I've been changed in the night. Let me think. Was I the same when I got up this morning? I can almost remember feeling a little different. But if I am not the same, the next question is, "Who in the world am I?" Ah, that's the great puzzle. ~ Alice in Wonderland- Lewis Carroll

Nothing Gold Can Stay
Nature's first green is gold Her hardest hue to hold Her early leaf's a flower But only so an hour Then leaf subsides to leaf So Eden sank to grief So dawn goes down to day Nothing gold can stay. ~Robert Frost
Bethany Beach 2007
Maggie & Millie & Mollie & May
maggie and millie and molly and may went down to the beach (to play one day)
and maggie discovered a shell that sang so sweetly she couldn't remember her troubles, and
millie befriended a stranded star whose rays 5 fingers languid were;
and molly was chased by a horrible thing which raced sideways by blowing bubbles: and
may came home with a smooth round stone as small as a world and as large as alone
for whatever we lose (like a you or a me) it's always ourselves we find in the sea

Pie!
One of my former students brought me a pie last year. That was my first pie year, and I'm secretly hoping she will again this year...
Don't tell anyone.
I'm glad your conferences are over. It's important, but it's also a nice hurdle to get over.
I am SO glad that pie is in your tummy and not in your face! Pie....I have to remember that one!
Pie instead of plummeting into a river of snakes?
I'd say you got the WAY better end of the bargain ;)
Glad to hear it all went well.
oh nice!! You must be a real good teacher ;)
Mmm.. good for you!
Yay! I'm glad your conference went great! And yes, parents that bring pie are extra awesome. I guess that parent knew you didn't have any "pie shops" by you! :)
