The Sevvies


Today some of #1 son's pals came to our home, waking me up from a nap on the couch. 2 of these sevvies were former students. As I sat up and tried to straighten out my couch head, the sevvieboys started down memory lane. Ringleader sevvie asked, "Hey, remember the time I brought a giant bag of cheetos to lunch and passed it around to all the kids and you got really mad?" When the laughter died down, homework slacker sevvie added, "And remember the time I brought a 12 pack of coke in my backpack and brought them up to the cafeteria and that's all everyone had for lunch that day?" More laughter and gleeful shaking of heads.
"I remember well," I told them. "Those were good times." They agreed and then asked if we had any pie left from Thanksgiving that they might enjoy.

I am off to the Social Studies National Conference. Someone backed out at the last minute and I get to replace. I am sure it will not be as fun as the NCTE cause you won't be there.
