I have my little sunshine in my house today

And I have all of you to thank!!!!!

I am exactly where the good lord wants me to be....and this is where I will
stay.
I have a clean house -- almost all of my important stuff (I did leave a few
things behind but they did say I could come back for those).

Your job today is to get those kids to believe in themselves -- believe
that they CAN do great things - Even if it is only a great as they can be.

Do the hand of God thing this week -- I had a blast doing it yesterday.
Here is you lesson plan:

1. Ask your students if all believe there is a God -- Do they believe In
God We Trust? One Nation Under God? If any student does not believe there
is a god -- ask what about good karma -- good things happen to good people?
(Buddhists believe differently -- and true Buddhists are the most spiritual
people).

2. Tell them -- teachers are chosen by God to shape the future of this
country -- and these hands are the hands of God. God has chosen me to bless
you today -- now you go out and thank a teacher.

3. First step in getting kids to learn -- is to show them that care really
care for them.

4. AND if the hand doesn't work -- try a kiss on the top of their forehead.

Tis the season you know. Remember --- you are chosen by God to teach the
wealth of this Nation -- The children ARE our future so we really need to
invest in that.

"Tis the season to be jolly fa- la-la-la-la-la-la-la la...Dawn we now our
GAY apparel" -- Ooops excuse me!! Talk about that when you can. My kids
got the idea --- and there were a few red faces around the room.
