Student teaching conversation #2

I wore a button down shirt to school today. I only buttoned the top buttons and left the bottom undone and had a cute undershirt underneath it.

Student: Teacher, why dont you have your whole shirt buttoned up?

Me: Because that is the way I wear this shirt.

Student: (looking innocently and in a concerned voice) Well are you just fat or something and thats why you can't button it up but you are too embarassed to tell me that?

Me: (trying not to laugh) No, I just like to wear it that way.

Student: Okay, I know the real reason, but I wont tell anyone. Now come here so I can try to help you button up the rest of your shirt!

You've got to love kids! They are the only ones that can tell me I'm fat and I'm not going to cry about it! :)

They are all first graders. Gotta love them. The funny thing about it is today, the same little girl walked up to me and said, "Mrs. Orr, My mom used to be as skinny as you, but then she had babies!" haha

Haha! I love my 5th graders, but hearing conversations like this really make me miss my 1st graders from senior practicum!

If you keep writing down all of your conversations with your students, you could write a book! It would be hilarious!

Our Kids

Our Kids
These are our two kids. Bailey is our yellow lab and we got her on the 21st of Feburary. She's so smart and full of energy. Then our newest edition is Rugar our little black lab. We just got him on the 26th of April. He's definately more out spoken then Bailey is and doesn't let her push him around. That's all the kid's were going to have for now.

About Me

We got married on the 4th of Janurary. We dated for almost 3 years so lets just say we really knew each other before we got married. We got married in the Idaho Falls Temple. Liz just graduated from BYU-Idaho with a bachelors in Elementary Education. She will be teaching 1st grade at South Fork Elementary School in Archer this coming fall. I just finished my final year of school going into being an Electrian. I still work for Xtreme Electric and still keeping really busy with summer coming.
