Fall

We really have to look at the calendar to know that we are already into the 2nd week of October.  I keep thinking, 'no good deed goes unpunished', so we will have to make up for this unusually warm weather by having bad weather later--time will tell?


I had such a wonderful day today! I only hope that some or all of my readers could have had a day like mine.


Life seemed to 'make sense' today.


What I tried worked.


People I spoke to were receptive.


I am outside smelling a fire that I made myself--gotta love that!


and, my husband cooked me dinner!


What is not to LOVE about that?

MONTESSORI


I love to have a day where everything seems to be scripted by the "Montessori Good Fairy"!  You know what I mean--everything you try is even better than you could have imagined--a child gives you an unsalisited, 'good job'--or 'we like your games Mrs Wiggs'.  You can not plan it--you can not pay for it to happen--but when it does (like today for me) it is priceless!


All of this is not just "dumb luck".  It is payback for all the hard work we put into our lessons, preparations, and the attention we give to child development and meeting the needs of the individual and the group.  But it is SWEET non the less.


I wish for each of you to have a rewarding day like I had today.  But, if you had a challenging day--just remember, keep working and it will pay off one of these days.
