Ahhh, there is nothing more calming for a teacher than the week leading up to a major holiday. Except maybe a hurricane klaxon blaring under the bed after a really long trip to the grocery trip. There are seven days left until Halloween and I already know who is going to be Ninja Turtle, who is going to be a princess, and who is going to be a tiger.
Halloween is one of those traditions that is really full of hype and anticipation and then has a sugar-infused melt down for days after.
I think I'll put on my go-to costume....Tired Mommy.
