So, I've been a really bad "owner"? Is that even the correct term for my relationship with Lambie? I mean, I can't say girlfriend because I'm not dating him...that's just weird on too many levels. Regardless, I have been really awful. I forget to take Lambie Pie everywhere I go! He hasn't seen anything. All he does is hide in bed, away from the 3 dogs that live here. I mean I guess at night he gets a good spooning from me...I let him be little spoon, but other than that he is seriously deprived. His time might come when we go to Amsterdaaaammm this weekend.
School is going great! I really enjoy first grade. I think that I might want to teach 1st more than I do K. The kids here make me laugh so much. It is health week here and the students are learning about healthy foods and ways to stay healthy. This girl was presenting her health project to the class and was saying how we shouldn'e eat much candy and sweets. This other boy joins in by telling us that if we eat too much of those foods then we won't be able to poop for a veyr long time. I could not stop laughing. I had to get up and excuse myself because it was so funny how casual he said that. I'm so immature. I also wear my nametag to school, I'm not sure why, but I do. So all the kids think that my name is TCU Sarah Bourland School of Education because that's what the nametag says. So, they like to draw me photos and on this one photo it literally said "To: TCU Sarah Bourland School of Education" as if the entire thing was my full name! hahahaha. They also like to pull on it to bring it closer to their faces...let's just say if they weren't looking so hard at the nametag they would get an eye full of something else. I've stopped wearing it because it became a problem of them exposing myself too many times!
Today, this little boy got kicked in the face while playing football (soccer). I took him to the loo to get cleaned up because he was bleeding a little. Turns out the ball made his already loose tooth even looser. I got excited for him because this will be his first tooth to lose. He immediately started crying. Could these be tears of joy?! Well, no. Once I got excited, he became terrified because he thought that this "toothfairy" I spoke of was going to come and steal his tooth. I explained to him that he would grow a new and better tooth, but he said that he was happy with the one he had. I eventually calmed him down and had him playing again. Afterwards, I realized that I had scared this kid to tears from talking about this fake fairy coming to take his tooth. Damnit. He still likes me though.
Tomorrow will be my first time being left alone with the class for multiple hours. If I don't blog tomorrow, then I'm dead or in trouble. Notify someone....not my parents though.

I am incredibly jealous. Its rainy and shitty here, plus im hungover, my only enjoyment is reading this blog. I still have not received the waffle from Belgium, i'd assume you would over night it... I would like to receive the specialty from every place you go. Catch my drift? Have fun this weekend!
