T is going to be a drummer for sure. He has his own little set and he actually has pretty decent rhythm. He runs over to them and sings and bangs on them like his life depends on it. I'm thinking that before high school, I may need to soundproof the basement. I don't dislike it. For the most part, I can tune it out. But on those particularly crazy, harried days, I just wish for a few minutes of peace to regain my sanity.
We are having a Halloween party this year, and we have a ton of guests coming. He's got a lot of little buddies who will be in costume, and I love the fact that we'll all be hanging out. T is going to be Curious George, I'm going to be a flapper, and B is going to be Caesar. I didn't have the money to get much else this year, so I had to go to Walmart. Hey, costumes there aren't really all that bad!
On another note, I've lost 3 pounds on WW. I'm feeling better about myself, though I know that I'm having a tough week.
Today was also a little crazy, and I met my student teacher for the first time. I think she thinks I'm a little crazy. It doesn't help that I was talking about Chaucer with accelerated and we got graphic and silly. I love those kids, but I think she thinks I was over-the-top. We'll see. I'm interested to see what her style is. It wasn't too long ago that I felt I would never be able to be silly and fun in the classroom. Now, I love those moments the most. The kids feel much more comfortable being themselves. We may get off track every now and then, but I sure know who they are, and I know they are learning.
