I should be sleeping, but I'm not. You see..I gave up Chocolate for Lent and rather than preparing kindly, I've spent all day eating as much chocolate as I could eat without needing a brown paper bag. So..I have all this caffeine in me and I'm wide awake...thinking about whether I should spend the last minute eating some more chocolate or just letting it go. Oops..too late, it's midnight and Lent has officially started today.
So..since I'm awake, why not post about my latest RAK.
Today, I volunteered in my son's classroom and it was awesome!!!! I got an e-mail from a friend who asked me if I wanted to come over and help her teach an art lesson on Dr. Seuss and watercolors. I know nothing about art, but I knew a thing or two about set-up, clean-up and changing the water when it got all dark and cloudy. It was really cool to see the kids excited about art and I was happy to be a part of their excitement. My son is moving on to 6th grade next year, so I won't get any or very many (I'm trying to keep positive here) opportunities to volunteer in his classroom or meet his classmates. I had a blast changing water and providing positive feedback on their artwork. If I could change anything about volunteering today, I probably would have added some lunges in between the water changes. After eating so much chocolate, I'm 100% positive my pants are not going to fit tomorrow.
Until tomorrow, find a little bit of time to volunteer in your kid's classroom. That saying kids grow up way too fast is soooo true!
