I want to go back to first grade. Why does everything have to be so complicated when we grow up? Why can't things just stay easy, like they were then? Back when you had time to play, and use your imagination, and had all the love in the world to give away. Back when hugs were your currency, and recess was used to race each other around, and you were friends with anyone you wanted to be friends with. Why can't we always remain in the time when you didn't have to worry about your future, or your GPA, or having enough money to pay the gas bill? I think that's part of why I love kids so much. They take you back to that place... even if just for a moment. They make it easy to see the world through their eyes... where everything makes sense and they have no reason to doubt, and where all they want to love someone. Yep, I love first graders.



My Mom's class. I'm going to miss those kids like crazy this week. I love them!
