The Poem of a Child..

On the poetry vein, in 3rd grade right now we are doing a poetry unit. Yesterday we were working on free verse and a student of mine asked if she could share her poem with me. It went a little something like this:

On Christmas Eve
We eat Mexican Food
On Christmas Eve
We sit around
On Christmas Eve
We eat Mexican Food
'Cause on Christmas Eve there's not a lot to do
When you're a Jew!

wurd Marissa! Nice to hear from you! Your life right now is crazy, not knowing where you'll end up, exciting though. Keep in touch. Stay cool and have a good summer. ;) Btw, lovin' the moustache party. We're fans of the stache as well, did you see our Mexi-staches on our blog? We are total kindred spirits.
