Winter is death.

That is a metaphor. I have been working on metaphors with my kids as part of our descriptive writing. School is crazy and busy. The kids are great but the 30 minute drive on the winter highway is not. We have been talking a lot about the rights of a child in Social Studies and my kids are amazing. I am sure all teachers say that but you show me another amazing group of kids that continually rock out fantastic work and truly want to be better little people and i will take back that mine are the best. This last week has not gone by fast and I worry that this is a sign of things to come. Bad weather, bad roads and a student that is not happy unless they are causing trouble has stressed me out a tad bit this last week. I am excited to have Christmas break, i will get to go up and see my new niece in Grande Prairie and spend a little time at the ranch. Might even get on a snowmobile but probably not. One day i will live somewhere that winter never happens. Talk to you all in another 4 months haha.
