Call Me Crazy

Call me crazy. Don't get me wrong, we only hold our children to the highest standards as far as education goes. They spend many hours inside studying and working on homework, while others are at the park. However, I love class parties. I love the cookie decorating, the candy, the frosting, the crafts, and especially, the memories.

I have had the rare "opportunity" of being a class mom in a couple of different classrooms this year. It's not easy. I don't have time for it. But, I just can't say no.

So, here's Valentine's Day at Power Ranch Elementary School...

Cody's class had been studying about the state of Arizona (woot, woot!). Since it was Arizona's birthday, they decorated giant cookies and had to make maps out of them. The girl to the right is from another, strange country. I can't remember which one. Cody is totally fascinated by her because she is so excited about everything they do. He loves explaining what things are. It's kind of cute!

Preston loves for me to come into his classroom, but does not give me the time of day when i'm there. It just makes me hug him and kiss him even more!

Tyler was SO excited to make a Valentine bag, and do all of the activities at his party. Everything is new to him. I love it!

You are such a good mom! I know what you mean. You have to be involved in your kids lives in order to make sure they have good experiences. So that is why I was PTA pres this year. Sheesh it's not easy. And I will never do it again. Good heck room mom for 2 classes? You are insane! But an awesome mom!
