Who wouldn't want to spend a week teaching these beautiful faces ;) They are good kids and a fun class. But I'm not a teacher - I don't have much patience or the know-how on conveying information about square roots, adverbs, and words ending in -able in an understandable manner. Talking and teaching are not my gifts.
It was a great way to end our week together...and perhaps left the 5th & 6th grade class with memories of me as a nice substitute teacher - not as the crazy lady who doesn't tolerate whining and whose patience wears out a little too quickly sometimes --- and who isn't a good Math teacher! ;) 
On another note, Wednesday was "Administrative Professional's Day" - formerly known as Secretary's Day. Even though I was part-time secretary, full time substitute teacher this week, I was still remembered for what I do in the office at church & school. :)
My husband got me roses - my kids got me a Diet Pepsi & a 3 Musketeers (they know me well!!) - and the church gave me a Gerber daisy, a gift card, and chocolate. 
A few other very sweet people treated me too! I got a yummy fresh cinnamon pastry from one of the teachers for breakfast, a Krispy Kreme donut from another as a snack - and this sweet (calorie free) gift bag from a friend. It was all so nice!! I truly don't feel worthy because I complain too much about my job and don't always have a servant's heart...but I'm thankful they keep me around anyway. Of course, there's no one else who wants the job! :)

Conny, I loved looking at the pictures!! I enjoyed seeing your students...and wow, you were treated to some nice little goodies. Isn't it nice to be loved? So next week...you're back to regular schedule, right? Does this mean you have decided not to go out and get a teaching job????
