5.8 Coming Alive


The bell rings, the day begins. My twenty-four kids come blustering in. My smile greets them, but not all of them have smile greetings, too. 

They take out their books, I pull out mine. Filled with pencil, I get to re-live my favorite stories.  Today it’s the runt pig, and the spider that spells.  I love when they talk with me about the story. When their parents tell me what the book does with them at home.

The bell rings, the day done. One girl stays behind while her mother comes, late.
She skips to meet her, “Salutations, Mommy!”
