The Art of Blogging

So, a most dashing and intelligent young man told me once that my blogs were too long. I think I would agree. The problem is I haven't gotten the hang of this blogging thing yet. I thought maybe I had to write some type of well polished essay or something. Now I see that is quite the contrary. All I need is some level of creativity and then maybe you would want to read it. Or at least I would enjoy writing it. Unfortunately I am all out of creative juices for the day so we will settle for this. Today was . . . interesting. I arose early to spend my day with a group of fourth graders at College Heights Christian School. Upon my arrival I realized my shoe seemed to be dragging. I thought maybe I had picked up something on the bottom of my shoe. But as I stood there in the hallway, shaking hands with principals and trying to appear adult and professional, I realized the bottom of my shoe was coming detatched from the top. That was just one part of my day. Yet it was a continual problem. I ended up taping both shoes together with packaging tape. So much for professional. The kids found it rather hilarious. I love kids. I met this one kid who cracked me up. He was a chubby red headed boy with pale skin and freckles. He was adorable. I think my kids will look like him. First he came real close to my face and exclaimed in an excited whisper, "I'm a REAL western cowboy!" He proceeded to show me his white cowboy hat and told me he had a hat but he wasn't allowed to wear it inside. He was very disapointed about that. I was excited for him and said "Wow! I've never met a REAL western cowboy before!" Then he continued to ramble nervously about cowboys. Okay. This post is getting too long. I will end it. It was great to be in the school today. Oh and the shoes. Are you wondering? Of course not but I'll tell you anyway. They were almost completely gone by the time I got out of school. I ran barefoot through the rain puddles in the parking lot to find my car. It was great. I love bare feet and I love rain puddles so it was a good way to end it. The End.
