Wordless Wednesday: Just another reason why I love my job...

By one of my lil kindergarten boys

 "Sure, you can draw your self portrait riding on a unicorn on top of a rainbow."

How many people get to say that at work?

Last week the district Youth Art Month opened in conjunction with the adult Somethin' Fishy Show.  To keep with the theme all the student artwork was "fishy" as well.  Every child in the district, from 5k-8th grade had a piece of art in the show.  Getting it all put together was stressful and involved many unpaid hours of organizing, labeling, and hanging artwork but it was all worth it to see the excitement and joy the kids got from showing off their artwork and witnessing the appreciation and amazement of the parents of what their child created.

I love my job :)
