Heroes All

Heroes All was the name of the winter concert that Oakdale's 3rd and 4th grade classes performed last night.  This is the little hero in our family on his way home, courtesy of his sister.  I don't know what was in that bag but I'm guessing it had a lot more sugar in it than I might have allowed under normal circumstances. 

Here are the 3rd and 4th grade classes performing songs about Booker T Washington, Charles Lindbergh, Helen Keller, Albert Einstein, and other heroes. I'm not sure if you can tell how diverse this group is, but I can tell you it is a little United Nations here in Normal, Illinois.  I love that about Oakdale.  It's not your grandmother's grade school, that's for sure. 

Ok now let's review:

AFTER:

I think everyone has got it, now.  There will be a test soon.  I think the test will be mine, however, when I remind Jeremiah that he needs to write me a letter of apology this mornning for calling me a name when he got mad later in the evening.  I think it might be test time now.  It will be a test of patience.  I'm pretty sure I will get at least a C.
