I seriously think I have the best job in the world.  My students are awesome.  Their questions, comments, and conversations are so innocent, inquisitive and naive- not to mention- HILARIOUS.  Today in the science lab, a first grader raised his hand, and in the most serious tone, asked, “Mrs. Mielke, is Mother Nature REAL?”  After doing my best at explaining that Mother Nature isn’t a real PERSON, but instead just a personification of nature (yeah, yeah- YOU try to do better with six year olds), another student chimed in and said- “Yeah, it’s like a BELIEF- just like Jewish people believe in one God and Christians believe in LOTS of Gods!”

Hehehe… Now, even I am confused. 🙂

I love them. 🙂
