October 31, 1996

Gene and Mary held hands and laughed as they watched Harmony and Leo dance around in the living room with their matching Halloween costumes. Both children were wearing ghost costumes made from old bed sheets. Gene had helped Leo dress his costume up with a top hat and a bow tie. Harmony had added a pink tutu and plastic tiara to hers.

Leo had spent a lot of time with Harmony and the Harrisons since that first playdate back in September. The Harrisons had purchased some clothes for Leo and allowed him to keep some of his things at their house. Leo had explained how things had to be shared at the group home and were often stolen. Leo was as proud of the cardboard box of belongings he had sitting in the Harrison’s lving room as rich people are of their mansions.

The Harrisons had initially been worried about the amount of time Harmony spent with Leo, but they were good for each other and he was a respectful boy. They decided that it was destiny that brought the two lost children together.

“We better get going before all the good candy gets taken.” Gene Harrison said as he clapped his hands together and motioned for the front door.

Harmony and Leo held hands as they skipped out of the house saying ‘trick or treat’ over and over again.

News on Sebastian

I thought it might be time to give you guys a little Sebastian update and I promise that it is all good news!

He went after school today for a cast change and it looks like this will be the last cast he'll need as a result of this surgery.

The last cast was really hard for him. They readjusted his foot putting more pressure on it and bent his leg at the knee a little more than before. It was really painful for him and it was painful to watch him dealing with it, but he handled it like a pro.

This new cast will hopefully be easier on him. Mom says it will only be a half cast instead of covering his full leg. He's excited that he'll be walking again soon.

The doctor's have all been pleased with how everything has gone and how quickly he has healed. There's a possibility that he may have another surgery this summer since he's handled this one so well.

I'll get a pic of the new cast tomorrow to share with you.

Guess what?

I made it through the day without getting fired, moved to fifth grade, or telling anyone off.

Aren't you proud of me?

**Come back tomorrow for the guy version of this wordart**

OK guys, I had a wonderfully lazy weekend so there's not much to talk about tonight. I decided I would show you a couple more of the rainy day photos I took Saturday. I really only like this first one because the tall building in the background by the cruise ship is where I live.

I really, really dread going back to school in the morning. Wish me luck!

Finally, something went my way this week! I didn't have to photograph cows! I would have done it, but I would have done it from a distance. lol!

Because of time and the weather we just stayed on campus and took photos. It was fun. Here's a photo I took of my instructor...(Not the mean one that said I wasn't creative, but the nice one that actually likes my photos.)

And here are a couple of my classmates...

After taking lots and lots of pictures we went to Bryan in the Kitchen and had an excellent lunch!

Next saturday is our last class and I am so sad about that! Now, I'm not going to have anything to do on Saturday mornings but sleep in. lol! I plan on taking the advanced class, but it doesn't start until June.

Job hunting...

OK, so, uummm, if you know of any schools that are looking for a kindergarten teacher could you put in a good word for me? I should probably start my job hunt now cause I'm pretty sure no one can go off on their principal the way I went off on mine today without facing some sort of punishment...really, really bad punishment.

In my defense, after being forced to test my students for over two hours on Tuesday I warned everyone that this was not going to be the week to mess with me!

I have decided that whatever my punishment is, I will wear it like a crown because I didn't say anything that wasn't true and I don't regret anything I said. As a matter of fact, after I had time to calm down and think about everything I was only sorry that I hadn't said more!

Orange Croc Guy has been laughing at me all night. He informed me that I'm the worst smack talker ever and that he's not going to support me after I get fired.

AND.....as if there weren't already enough things wrong in my life.....my photography class fieldtrip has been messed up and the last I heard they were changing the plans and now I might have to go photograph cows.

I don't do cows!

They're big and smelly and I'm scared!
