I am just finishing up my final Daddy Day ditty, but you will have to wait until tomorrow. The direction page needs one more edit. I have a good reason for the delay though . . . promise! I went up to school to meet with my long-term sub about my typical Open House extravaganza. I had held onto all of my favorite projects for my return to work (which so horribly failed this week), so she has a bum-load to do before Thursday (sorry Tiff)! From the moment I opened that door I felt so at home and I loved seeing so many of my teaching friends. My room looked fantastic too. As I read their writing and peeked at their work my heart filled with joy. My sub, and dear friend, is doing such a fantastic job with them. Check out some of the things that are brightening up good old Room 13 these days. . .

| Teaching Bestie . . . thanks so much for the idea! |
 |
| Look . . . "Big Kid Paper" . . . so proud of my babies! |
 |
| One of my favorite Africa Unit projects . . . don't remember which book we got it out of (sorry). |
I am really hoping to make it in for a "visit" during Open House next Thursday. They are going to be busy bees this week and I can't wait to see all of the other cool stuff they are about to create.
On a final note, here's one more HUGE shout out to my long-term substitute. The kids, parents, and I are so lucky to have you. Your dedication and efforts with the "troops" are greatly appreciated . . . and I wouldn't be this far along the recovery road without you, girl!
See you tomorrow gang!
