Last Wednesday was Earth Day. To commemorate this, the kids and I planted grass in styrofoam cups. I am a walking and talking oxymoron and that's okay.
Our grass people just started sprouting this week, and the kids have been helping me water and watch as the blades of grass were coming in. I left them on a tray on our Science Table so all the kids could look closely and help water. How exciting!
Until karma came in the form of a very curious 2-year-old boy this morning - who is new to our class and wants to dump everything out and push all the buttons he can find. Including mine. I'm sorry Earth. Next year I will use old milk carton bottoms. Sheesh.

Whack that boy upside the head with his own Karma!
Oh he is everything a 2-year-old could ever possibly be in your worst nightmare and then some, but he's growing on us. ;-)
Why do I find such sick enjoyment in this? Too funny. I love you, Margo. Your posts always refresh me after a crappy week.
Also, I am glad it wasn't my son :-).
Awe thanks Mary :-)
I'm sorry you had a crappy week.
I think I did too. I'm encountering a rush of some pretty disturbing behaviors with a couple of boys in my class right now. If all they were doing was knocking over plants, I'd be much happier.
Praying for God's grace and mercy this week, as we tackle our many child-rearing challenges ;-) Ha ha
