Cuddle up a little closer...

Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves.

As usual, this morning I was driving to school and listening to my MP3 player. Most of my favorite music is on it and I like to listen to it in the schuffle mode. I do have alot of music from the fifties and sixties on it. Every morning when I arrive, the other teacher and myself sing, to the class, a short snippet of a song. I think some times that the students think we're nuts (we probably are but, we ARE good teachers.) The songs are completely unknown to the students but, we know the words and melodies. It really adds brightness to our day. I can only imagine what I would have done if my teachers in high school had sung a few bars of some out-dated song to our class. There is a certain priviledge that goes along with teaching in a private school.

My mom stayed over last night. We had a lovely evening. She left this a.m.--at 5:30 to visit my daughter and her family. I got up at 3 a.m. with her and drove her to the airport at 4:15 a.m. (notice the stress on A.M.). I helped her get all the way to security. I left, then guess what? I went back to sleep as soon as I got home. Cuddling up a little closer to my husband, I woke-up late. No make-up, only a shower and clothes. My face feels like a prune with no moisturizer.

My husband is the best in the world. My teacher friend and I agree on this point. Hers is the best too. We also agreed that we were starting to acquire these little pains occasionally but we are still, both soooo cute. Our husbands love us, our kids are great, and that makes all of the material things in this world so small. Life is great and I am blessed.........

Oh, when I called to see if mom arrived, my daughter said, "The Eagle has landed..." Too cute.
