Well, the big news of my day: I got a reimbursement check from school today. Spent it all on itunes. Glee to be exact.
It had been a while since I had updated and I had some complaints from my faithful readers (mom) so I thought I would write today.
Last week, I was asked by one of my kids, "Miss Skowski(can't pronounce it correctly!), is Santa real?" Well, of course I said yes. So, I guess feeling that my answered hadn't satisfied, another kid said to him, "DUH! you can go see him at the mall!" Whew, got away with that one. But then, I got to thinking. Why do parents lie about Santa, the Easter bunny, the tooth fairy, etc? Why would you spend hundreds of dollars a year and lie and pretend it wasn't you who bought it. Your kids think Santa is cooler than you. That just doesn't work for me. Santa isn't paying for your new drum set. Santa didn't buy you that Easy Bake Oven. Santa didn't put your new bike together. (or in Chrissy's case, your new treadmill) So, why do people do it? Santa didn't work a day in his life, and here I'll be slaving for my teaching salary to give the credit to a fat creeper in a red suit. In the words of my class, "NOT FAIR!"
