Did our hearts not burn as He spoke His word to us?
Did our hearts not yearn as we journeyed with the Word?
I love the Emmaus story!! Okay, I'll admit it really never meant much to me before last year. It was just another wonderful Gospel story.
Then I read Mane Nobiscum Domine, which for all you who have read this beautiful document can testify, is a-mazing.
It was one of those I couldn't put down, and highlighted and wrote all over. It's got arrows and smiley faces and all the goofy stuff I like to write all over something when I really, really like it. :o)
My first graders were adorable today. It was my last day, and I am going to miss them oodles! I had fun playing ball with them at recess (a little basketball here and there, of course), and all that jazz. They fought over who could hold my hand, too. :) Dear. And I got lots of biiiig hugs when I left today. Hoorah for that.
And the funniest quote today was from a cute little boy:
Me: Hey, how was recess? Did you have fun?
Him: Yeah.
Me: What did you play?
Him: Catch and kick. (a game where the kids stand in a huddle, kick the ball, catch it, then kick again. And repeat.
Me: Cool. Are you pretty good at that game?
Him: (raising his eyebrows and changing his voice a bit to sound cooler) Eh, I'm intermediate.
Intermediate? Haha. :) I love it!
Okay, time for Criminal Minds, my guilty pleasure. It's brilliant.
