It wasn't even 6:30 am. yet, but I was already parking my car at school. Ever since classes started, I'm finding it necessary to come earlier and earlier each day, with a long list of things to do before my first class for the day- I fear by the end of this month I'll start bringing my sleeping bag to school!!
I was kinda drowsy, and my feet were still aching from the day before (I didn't sit for a second all through my 8 hours at school), and was still recovering from the fact that the FEW hours of sleep I got last night were crowded with dreams (more like NIGHTMARES) of the kids I teach!!
Boy, being a teacher is a handful! (more on that in upcoming posts;)
Then it happened. This one teenie weenie totally unexpected thing that takes you by surprise, and then leaves you, standing there, with a big fat silly grin on your face! And you know right there and then- it's a magical start for a magical day!
She's an American teacher (married to a Kuwaiti) and her kid is in Grade 4. She came up to me and said: "Just so you'd know, yesterday I asked Ahmed what his favorite subject for the day was, and he said Science.... He usually says PE, that's a first".
I'm tellin ya, big fat silly grin ALL day!;D

No surprises there. I would challenge any teacher to get "favorite" status for herself, or her subject while you're around.
Heck, I'm worried my own kids will like you more than they like me .. fortunately this isn't something I have to agonize over just now :)
So proud of you sis, may big fat silly grin moments fill your days.
Huh: Big. Fat. Silly. That reminds me of our cat!
Much Love from me.
LOL
Big. Fat. Silly.
That IS our cat! How could I have missed that? hehehe
As for your kids sis, just make them ONE of your killingly yummy desserts, and I can ASSURE you, you'll get their eternal love, gratitute and unwaivering loyalty (that's how you got mine;P)

I can think of many things that are Big. Fat. Silly. especially when it comes to us.
How about the two of us after eating some of those desserts you mention?
LOL
What an unflattering way to put it:P
And coming from no less than "jameelet arjan" herself!
Be careful, this may compromise your beauty 'image' (but wait- the actual name is already doing that for you:P) hehe
Miss you tons!
I can't but feel proud of you, despite the fact that you forgot to email me your blogger address.
Good luck for you but remember that we make our luck.
