Day 181: Pretty Blue Flowers

I was told the name of these pretty blue flowers, but I've forgotten it. But I do know that you can eat them. Apparently they're very good in ice cubes too.

Day 179: Looks Like A Sock Puppet.

Okay, so i know that it's not a sock puppet. But I like finding faces in things as you've seen previously. And I saw these lights and just needed something to make a nose and a mouth, but I couldn't get the plants to work for me, so I ended up just taking it as is and then rotating it. Which made me think of a sock puppet. Yeah!!!!!!

Day 178: Plant Pattern

I know I've done one like this before, but I just love these plants. So I thought I'd repeat myself.

Day 175: A Bright and Cheery Flower

It's so nice to see a nice and cheery flower, it certainly makes the rain easier to put with. I love the bright orange of this flower. Not sure what it is though.

Day 173: Livingston Daisy

Or at least, I think that that's what it is. Whatever it is, I really liked it.

Day 172: But We Want To Play Outside!

It feels like it's been raining here for the past month. I know that it hasn't, but I just wish we could have a couple of nice days in a row. I visited my friend's house after school, and it seems like her children were feeling exactly the same way I do. Hopefully it'll brighten up soon. Fingers crossed!

Day 170: Rainbow Outside My Window

On my way to work this morning, there was a brief patch of sun through the rain and this lovely rainbow appeared. I love rainbows, they make me so happy.

Day 166: Beautiful Begonia

Yesterday I was given this beautiful plant as a thank you for working with the school choir. Isn't it lovely? And aren't I lucky too? It certainly brightens up my lounge.

Day 164: Face at School

One of my boys suddenly pointed out this face while we were doing PE outside today. I've walked past this building so many times and never seen the face. It's a good one too!

Day 163: Bad Batteries

Can you believe it! I got home and all of the batteries in my house were out of charge - even the ones in my mouse didn't have enough juice to use my camera! Grrrrr!!!

Another Missing Day

I didn't post a photo yesterday because it was the Choir Festival yesterday. I was so proud of the children. They sang very well, paid attention to the conductor and behaved beautifully during the item performances. Good job kids, you were great!

Day 155: Hello!

When I first arrived in this school, My kids taught me so many new ways of saying "Hello!". And I've bee able to share the ways that I know with my kids. So, how many ways can you say hello?

Day 154: Star Anise

One of my girls brought this star anise in to class today to share with everyone. We had such a good time smelling the star anise and talking about it. What a great sharing activity. And I just love the smell.

Day 153: Photo of a Photo

This is a photo of a photo taken by my brother-in-law the last time I was home. It's one of my favourite photos of me and my sister. They had it put into a block as a surprise for me. I have it on my bookshelves. It always cheers me up. So I thought I'd share it with you.
