I have the best job ever! 
Everyday I get to hear the morning announcements. 
Today for lunch will be corn dogs, fruit medley, chocolate milk, and your choice of dessert.

We recite the pledge every morning.
On Fridays we sing our school song proudly.
Do you even remember that in Elementary school the Gymnasium, Auditorium, and Cafeteria are all the same room!?  So funny.  I totally forgot.

Some of the things I get to do at work.....
Build the tallest Jenga towers EVER!

Play games like Go Fish and War a bajilltion times!
Make paper air planes!
Have Valentine's Day Parties!!
Remember bringing Valentines for all your friends and strategically picking out the perfect sayings for your friends and the cute boys? 
Remember making Valentine's Boxes?

I totally remember making a CANDY CASTLE.  We made it out of K'nex.  You had to plug it in so when you placed the candy on the moving conveyor belt it would take the candy into the castle and drop it off.  It was incredible!  I think kids gave me double the Valentines just so they could see their Valentine move into the castle and then disappear. 

It's fun when kids are excited to come see you!
Life is great!

    I'm so jealous of your job for the soul fact you get to eat school cafeteria food. You live the life!

    Yay, you are blogging again! I love it! When I was writing out Jack's valentines the other day, I totally thought back to the days where I strategically picked out the perfect Valentines for the boys I liked! And your candy castle sounds awesome.

    I want to know if work SMELLS like elementary school. Like dusty carpet, floor wax, sweat, and tater tots? How about lip smackers, soggy socks, and navajo tacos? I think that would bring back so many memories of my pre-teen life. Really cool that you work with kids and you're helping people. Way to go Ms. Newman.
