Winter Vacation is hours away. We don’t have a whole lot planned, but just knowing that we’ve got some time off is really, really exciting. What to do? Paint the baby’s room? Clean the gutters? Visit friends and family? Bake? Sit on the couch and eat BonBons?
It all sounds so exciting!
In the mean time, I’m going to work today and my students will be enjoying a very festive, busy Friday. We’ll be attempting wrap their gifts that they made for their families. I figure parents would appreciate gifts that were made 100% by their kiddos. I’m guessing that I’ll come home covered in tape.
We’re also decorating gingerbread houses, but I don’t have the heart to write about it here…..my houses always, always look like they are in the ghetto ~ all broken, damaged and hardly holding up. My solution is to give the kids lots of frosting and candy to cover up the cracked walls and crumbling state of their real estate.
So, as the time clicks away today I’ll be sniffing to see how close Winter Vacation is and how good it smells. Better than any batch of cookies.
