Teacher/Mommy Tattle Tales
Ruth:
This is has been a good year to me and I can’t really complain because
of all the blessings I have received.
This will forever be marked as the year that I became a mother and boy
what a change that has been! I feel like
one week I was going full-tilt at work and then a week later I was a mom. What a welcomed change it has been as I have
learned a lot about myself, what I can handle, and pretty much how to take care
of a little ball of needs. J
I’ve
mostly been enjoying working on projects around the house lately and I recently
finished refinishing our dining table. I
have plans to paint some Goodwill frames that I bought and then cut my own mat
board to dress-up whatever I decide to put in the frames. Then I hope to build some shelves for the
kitchen, bathrooms, and our bedrooms.
Aside
from wood working I still love photography and I have plans to learn how to
sew!
Shem: I
have been busy with work as always. It has been my first year being bribed by a
student (or at least attempted bribing. He brought in Krispy Kreme donuts for
me and it was so out of place I asked him jokingly if he was trying to bribe me
which he admitted he was. Apparently it was his way of trying to get me to
accept a late assignment. When I told him he could turn it in late anyways with
a small point deduction he took back his donuts. What goes through these kids
minds?
Even worse, apparently, is
what goes through my mind. There is a kid in my rambunctious 7th
period class who has been writing anything I say that is really funny and
randomly shares the quotes with the class.
Among them are the following:
“How fast did the brown guy
go?”
“Who is faster the brown guy
or the black guy?”
“Fatty McFatfat is on the
table”
“There’s a fat kid and a
skinny kid on identical skate boards First you push the fat kid *bloolooloo*(this
is supposed to sound like you are pushing a giant jello blob).
There are others too all of
which are taken out of context. I have just included the G rated ones here. The
other ones when taken out of context sound REALLY bad but I promise you they
are all physics related questions.
Asher: I may not be very old, but I’m old
enough to know I got jipped this year because I was only born in early May.
This means I missed a third of the year! Well, short of being stuck in a small
confined space for the first part this year has been pretty darn good. I eat, I
sleep (sometimes) and I poo. What more is there to life? No that’s an actual
question, is there more to life, because truly I have no clue.
Well even though I spend
most of my time eating, sleeping and pooing. I have learned a few skills. I
have standing skills, I can stand on my own when holding onto a couch or
something. I’ve got mad jumping skills. I can jump for hours and get myself to swing
back and forth in whatever direction I so choose. I got crawling skills and—
Um this is Dad interrupting
here. Asher is totally over exaggerating, cause his “crawling skills” is really
a push himself backward skill—
It’s Asher back. I just sucked on my Daddy’s
knee until his pants became saturated with saliva so he just left to change.
Daddy doesn’t know what he is talking about
and I would erase what he wrote but I can’t reach the delete key. Oh well.
Last but not least have mad
flirting skills. I can get out of trouble with the slightest little giggle and
I have my own harem of women at church who fight over who gets to hold me.
Yeah, I’m cute!
This is Asher saying:

I love getting them and love the idea of sending them. It is getting so expensive...
I know. That's my other reason... I already know that I spent too much on them this year. Next year I'll print at Costco again if I send them out. Shem loves to write the letter the most.
