I've had some rough classes.<BR/><BR/>Kris, I have so much respect for people who work with really difficult kids. I've heard some really scary stories.<BR/><BR/>Kathleen, I can deal with the little ones, it's the older ones who drive me batty. I had a 5th grade class the other day I thought I might flip out on... and don't even get me started about high schoolers ;)aighmeighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05213006618752792495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448013494344661234.post-75121453269586153722009-03-24T14:18:00.001-05:002009-03-24T14:18:00.001-05:00I hear you about the kindergarten.

I knew there was a reason that I only had one of my own. <BR/><BR/>Sorry to hear that you got sick! Better now, though, yeah?Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05301635466561126804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448013494344661234.post-2701519442461675242009-03-23T09:41:00.000-05:002009-03-23T09:41:00.000-05:00That is so precious about that little boy.

Two of my best friends are special education teachers, and when they tell me stories about their days (they deal with severely challenged children) I am more and more convinced they are saints.Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15450724332200070268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448013494344661234.post-8027720514392504672009-03-22T00:04:00.000-05:002009-03-22T00:04:00.000-05:00Thanks for the update.

I hope that little boy gets the proper care that can make such a difference in these cases.

Good attitude.<BR/><BR/>And I am happy to hear that your plans are falling in place -- even with the illness bout. You may have been hit with the flu-like virus that swept through our office this year. Some peiople are literally knocked down -- and others escape. Just like life, in general.<BR/><BR/>My move south will happen on 15 April. I feel like you did last December.Steve Cottonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00468378507171761868noreply@blogger.com
