Field trip was a success. Only a couple of minor injuries and we returned with as many kids as we left with. Everyone loved the play/musical "Mufaro's Beautiful Daughters." I was amazed at their talent and everyone was engaged throughout with all the wonderful acting, singing, dancing and drumming. One thing that I thought was really cute was one of my students, A, was waving enthusiastically to the actress who played the kind daughter and the actress waved back at her...a nice long wave. Very sweet. Afterward, we went to the park even though the weather was dreary and cold-ish.

Fridays can't come soon enough!

My sweet Shadow came to us in an interesting way. Apparently I visited with someone in the vet's waiting room once and we talked about shelties. Years later she remembered me (or it could have been months, I don't really remember) and wanted me to take in her sheltie. Come to find out he was a rescue and we ended up being his fourth home in his five little months of life. He is now five years old. He is out outdoorsy doggie, the only one who wants to stay out more than in. He is afraid of rain and storms but any other time it's hard to get him in the house. He would probably prefer to be an only dog. He ends up in another part of the house than the other three. He is a fattie. He scavenges and eats whatever he can find. We try to keep the crates doors shut but if we forget, he goes in and eats everyone's food. He also hates to have his picture taken! I have no idea why!

Here are a few pictures of Traci trying to get him to pose. She finally gave up!
