International Mail Call

Line has the reputation of being a package peeker...and Line's mom knows this. So she prepared the box of gifts from her family in Norway and sent them to South Dakota under my name.


And the timing was perfect. Line was gone for the weekend.

The girls went to Iowa to stay with Allison's grandma to bake cookies.

The box arrived...and it was packed full to the brim...






Yes...all of this was inside...

And now...some lovely surprises are waiting under our tree...




And some very special surprises are hidden away until Christmas!




There is just one week left of our 2nd term of school. So the pressure is on student and teachers to stay focused. I usually bring my student's folders home on Fridays. One of my fellow teachers let me borrow her crate on wheels. So now...this teacher is sporting some dual action tandem transport...
....embarrassing?!

You do look like you are going on vacation....but that is NO vacation! The next couple weeks are tough ones for teachers and for the kids. Hang in there....it's almost break tine!

I thought you were going on a trip, too! I hope you didn't have to work too hard this weekend. I'm sure you're looking forward to a break.

Line is a lucky girl to have so many surprises!
