umm. ms. fox..uh..wolf?

this week i started substitute teaching.
& i really enjoyed the experience. 
it is so neat because it is different everyday.
plus, i am not responsible to make lesson plans.
win.

i would like to share some adorable moments:
1. a few of the first graders couldn't quite grasp which animal was my last name. they kept calling me ms. fox.
2. no matter which school i was in, all the kids thought i look like the character from "Brave". the red hair :)
3.  one of the lunch ladies at a middle school thought i was a student. wow. but then one of the middle schoolers said "whoa. you look like us". they didn't know i was the sub. what? no, really. what?!
4. there was a kid who explained physics to me(way over my head) and we talked about his fused fingers on one hand. he was awesome.
5. i like to just sit and listen to the little conversations the kids have with each other. it is going to be so tempting to record my future kids all the time.

i have a new perspective and respect for teachers. what a tough job. they rock.
