Group Hugs and Barely Controlled Chaos

Today is a bittersweet day as it was my last day to read to the preschoolers before they are out of school. We read Green Eggs and Ham, Five Little Monkeys, and (my mom will be so proud) Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day.

The kids were literally all over the place. (I had one trying to climb in my lap, one little boy poking a little girl in the leg with his index finger, and one girl trying to show me--repeatedly--her new Disney Princess watch. It was pretty much chaos. Nothing controlled about it, but it was also wonderful to get the expected giant group hug and the chanted "Thank you, miss!"

It's going to be a loooong summer, I'm afraid.
