I thought I'd past my first time a long time ago... As a first time parent, and a first year teacher, nearly everything is a first for me. I recently had my thyroid removed and this was the first rainbow I saw after surgery. For the first time I felt God was telling me that everything was going to be okay. There is something to be said for firsts. So here's my first attempt at blogging.

Teaching Sports
I never realized this but sports seem to be taught at school. We live in New England, but I am a Yankees fan. My daughter says she likes the Red Sox, so I bought her a t-shirt. She put it on for school today and said, “Mom, I’ve got my Yankees shield on!” What the heck is that? That is so funny. I didn’t teach her about the Red Sox at home, and if you know New England our sports fans are SERIOUS up here. I wonder if there is a class at school on this, or just the kids on the playground. Maybe they teach it on the bus! Funny stuff. I thought it was genetic. I guess the Yankees are out anyway, so Go Red Sox.
"Red Sox 101" is taught at lunch every day by Miss Kim, the lunch lady. She is the BIGGEST Red Sox fan that I have ever seen and she talks to the kids about them every day. Ask to see the cafeteria next time you are at school. I tell the kids that everyone can have their own team, they all don't have to be Red Sox fans but I really feel bad for anyone who eats in the cafeteria and is not a fan! :)
