What Teachers do in the Summer~


We sleep in and...


wear our pajamas all day long.
(with our heels because after all we are classy)


We have important decisions to make, like ..

which pair of gloves to wear with our outfits,


and which flowers to pose with for our pictures.


We dream of Amour


and how to send our children away 
for an extended vacation.


We eat cherries
or
just pose with them instead of
the flowers.


we enjoy our Happy Hours
sometimes starting early.. like in the morning.


We play with our four legged fur friends


And happily sew our new teaching 
clothes for the school year.
And...

Now you know how teachers make the most 
of their long summer hours.


I would enjoy knowing what you are
doing with yours this summer,
please share.




When I found these photos earlier this summer, I just couldn't resist building a post around them.  It always strikes me as funny that some folks have no idea that teachers are always (for the most part) thinking of school no matter what they do during the summer.  Also we are busy trying to make up time with our families when we are not there during the rest of the year.  When school is on I average about a 55+ hour work week.  I am trying to do better, but honestly don't see how the ones that do keep it shorter actually do it.  If you are one of the lucky ducks, then maybe this is how your summer goes ~ LOL.  Enjoy your days my friends ~ XO, me
