I’m not CRABBY . . . it’s FRIDAY!
I did NOT burn myself today.
AND I was using a hot glue gun!
THAT is saying a lot since now you all know how clutzy I am.
Go ahead… applaud. 😀
I was glueing clothespins to the backs of white tiles.
See….
We’ve been making these Mother’s Day projects for a gobzillion years.
A few days ago the kids drew a “loving and wonderful” picture on their tile with Sharpies. {“We get to use your PERMANENT MARKERS?????!!!!” Oh… I LOVE how easy it is to please 6 year olds.}
Then I sprayed clear laquer over them so that the Sharpie doesn’t wash off later if it gets wet or something.
After that dries they are ready to have the clothespin glued on. The clothespin serves as both as “stand” for the tile and a note holder…
Cute and practical. Inexpensive, quick, and easy.
Yesterday we read these books.
Love them.
We talked about what it might mean when someone says, “Ah… you are a perfect little pearl.” “And what it means if you are being “crabby“. Then we wrote about things that make us crabby and how that makes us feel.
Then we made our oysters & crabs to put up in the tide pool that nearly killed me.
It’s WAY too crowded of a bulletin board. With the new, definitely not improved class-size, I’m thinking I will need to shrink the size of the crab next time around.

| I so agree with little Miss Lesley here, “Sometimes when I feel crabby I just want NO NOISE..” |
I wasn’t going to post this because SO many fan.tab.u.lous blogs already have, but then I felt guilty and ungrateful… so….here’s my badge. 😀
WOOT! It’s Friday Peeps!!! Have a spectacular weekend.
