I'm not an 'April Fool's Day' kinda gal, but today we had so much fun! I got my kids soooo good!
We have special right away in the morning and we always use the restroom on our way back to the classroom. Well today after gym, I told them we weren't stopping to use the restroom. Instead we went straight back to our classroom and I told them to put their heads down.
I have never told them to do that so they were totally in shock! I then 'reprimanded' them for not behaving this morning while waiting to come in the building. We did a quick review of school rules and I gave them the "Did we forget how to behave over Spring Break?!?!" speech until I couldn't keep a straight face anymore.
Then, I shouted April Fool's!!
They started to get up so I had to say put your heads back down. I told them the real reason they had to keep their heads down was because I had hidden Easter eggs in the room and I didn't want any peeking. They were so excited!!
They had to answer a first grade review question in order to find an egg. It was a huge success...especially after the April Fool's joke!
Now, on to Farley's April Currently!
I loved hearing the birds this morning! Spring is here!!
We are the last nine weeks of school. Woohoo! :)
See joke above!
I really need to get my report cards done...they're due Wednesday.
I soooo need a pedicure so my toes look cute for my summer flip flops.
Advice: Let the little things go...I need to work on this. Some days are better than others. I worry about too many things so I'm trying to let the little things go!
Now go link up with Farley and don't forget the rule of 3!!

Hi Rachel! I just found your adorable blog! I'm with you on the little things. I tend to be a perfectionist and the little things are really hard to ignore! Hoping you have a great last nine weeks of school and all goes well with report cards!

I love the April's Fool! Very funny! They were probably so relieved when you told them you were kidding. I must get report cards done. I always wait for the last minute! Glad to be following!
