My life is a movie

Well 3rd grade is off and running with a bang!  Well, I should say a few 1-2 punches!!  That's right...in the entire 10 days of school so far I have had one student punch 2 separate people, and another student just slap another girl in the face.  I'm thinking of inviting the Ultimate Fighting people to come and do a special in my classroom, because seriously, I think a few of these kids could qualify!  So, my life was immediately spiced up by "Kung Fu Panda" when he punched a kid on the 4th day of school...when asked what he could have done instead of punching him, he replied, "I could have hit him harder."  Noooooo, but good try!!  Since then Kung Fu Panda has punched one other kid, and my Diva In Training just straight-up slapped a kid in the lunchroom, and ripped off her necklace.  In addition to Kung Fu Panda and Diva In Training, I also have Junior Napoleon Dynomite in my class.  Imagine Napoleon as an 8 year old, same voice, and same random comments, and that's what I've got.  A couple of examples... "Mrs. Smith, sometimes, when I look in the mirror, I can see myself as a grown-up.  I have a goatee, and it's pointy, with a stripe down the middle."   Okayyyyyyyy.  Here's another one.... "Mrs. Smith, sometimes I have stress in me, and then I don't."  Riiiight.  I have no idea what to do with 99% of the stuff this kid says to me!!!  But, he makes me laugh, so that makes it all worth it!!  So, needless to say, 3rd grade is off to an interesting start!!

On a complete opposite note, Glenn is thouroughly enjoying his life as a house husband and Brooklyn and I are very glad to have him home for a while!!  With that being said, call us, we'd love to hang out!!  

That's it for now, and I will leave you with this....
Everybody was kung fu fighting.....those cats were fast as lightning.....
