Breakfast at Primary

I teach the CTR 5-6 year olds in Primary in our ward. Yesterday, the primary presidency held a breakfast for all of the kids and the primary teachers. I had worked the night before, but being the loving, devoted teacher that I am, I was determined to go, even after working 12 long hours (do you feel sorry for my yet?) I got home at 8am and I took an hour nap, got up and headed out to church. All of my kids came. We had our own table to sit at and eat our breakfast. Kuddos to the primary presidency who made a great feast (I am never one to turn down food). We had milk and o.j., homemade blueberry muffins, fresh fruit salad and a breakfast casserole--made of hashbrowns, ham, eggs, and cheese---yum,yum!!!!! After the meal was over, we went to our classroom where we were told to set some class rules and to name our classroom (I thought it already had a name--no. 19,who knew??). So we made some class rules. They are as follows: no gum chewing, no touching each other, no talking, raise your hand if you want to talk, keep your clothes on, keep your feet still and Choose The Right!!! Now choosing a name for the classroom in which there are four girls and just one boy was quite an ordeal, let me tell you!! Suggestions were: the princess room, the quiet room, the playroom and the happy room. At the end, it was unanimously decided that the classroom would be forever known as the dragon room!! After an hour of these little ones, I was exhausted. It was definitely time for this little body to go to sleep. I love my primary class.

And Kate is so excited to have you for a teacher. She was dissappointed today when you weren't there! But Sis Schwenke did a great job.

I particularly liked the "keep your clothes on" rule. You are a good person.
