I had to have oral surgery to remove all 4 of my wisdom teeth today. I actually felt pretty good. I'm on pain pills, but I felt pretty good.
Until 3:30. Erick just came home from buying me some soup from Leatherby's for lunch. I was light headed and leaning against him... The next thing I knew, Erick was standing over me "Jess.. Are you okay? You just passed out!"
I told him I was fine, but my head hurt a lot. He put his hand under me to provide a pillow when he realized I was bleeding.
So, a 3 hour ER visit resulted in 4 stitches in the back of my head.
I'm fine, but I was pretty embarrassed. Hopefully I won't have any more ER visits while I'm re cooping from my wisdom teeth. And now I'll have a super cool scar on my head.

Out of the Mouth of Babes...
Kids say the darndest things. Here are some of the funny things I've heard recently:
"It's okay Ms. Jess. It's only a legend and it only happens at sunrise."
"It's loosing it's wet!" (Talking about a clorox wipe becoming dry)
Vocabulary card with "which" - "Witch... EW! I don't like those things!"
"Come see my Jelly Fishing dance."
"It looks like a hurricane is going to happen." (I said, "Hurricanes don't happen in Utah because the hurricane can only start in an ocean and we don't live by an ocean.) "Oh! No wonder I've never seen one!"
"I can count by 15's. Wanna hear?" (And he did!)
We talked about different areas like mountains, deserts, etc. "Hey! I'm in Kobe's habitat!"
We went to see Ballet West's Nutcracker. "The boy who took the nutcracker from Clara is a BIG BULLLLLLY!"

A Day in the Life of a Paraprofessional
I love my job. I love my kids and I love the teacher I work with. I am entertained everyday.
We have a school-wide behavior plan. If the kids are having a good day, we call it a "green day." If they're being a little naughty, it's called a "yellow day." If they have having a completely rotten day, its a "red day."
Yesterday, 5 boys in my class were on red. They were talking and talking and WOULD NOT stop no matter what we said or did. In our class, when you are on red you don't have any priveledges (ie. adult takes you to the bathroom, you don't get drink priveledges during class, etc.) The boys didn't care.
So, I got to teach those 5 boys how to clean a bathroom. It was hillarious. The best part was cleaning the girls' bathroom. The boys' bathrooms are so much yuckier than the girls', but just gong into the girl's bathroom was a problem. haha Eight year old boys are funny.
They did a good job cleaning. And they all had a better day today. No toilet cleaning.
