A friend of mine started blogging her favorite things from the week. I think I will give this positive posting idea a try. Here are my favorites from this week:
- Partnering with a second grader during a PE activity with one person blindfolded and one giving directions on how to do exercises on fitness dots (i.e.: move your legs in and out and your arms up and down…jumping jacks!). It was precious how he used his patient teacher voice as he gave me the descriptions, along with “good job” when I got it right. Note: there was a sighted adult in the room while I was blindfolded.
- Watching a rough and tough, middle school boy gently lead a fragile, middle school girl during the same activity mentioned above. He even held her hand as he led her around the dots.
- Learning that I can run three miles with a partner and talk at the same time. I usually run alone and save the talking for a brisk walk. I enjoy my runs alone, but it was a nice break to have a running partner.
- Having the house to myself for three days while my husband was away on business.
- Having my husband back home again after being away for three days on business.
