Greetings! 246810, I enjoyed your pleasant reflections-especially picking up the book and turning off the T.V....... The learnings that you shared from Kindergarten brought back a smile to my wrinkled face! Years ago when I was a School Teacher in Toronto the Kindergarten Class was right next door to my room. It was my first year in teaching, I was fortunate to get hired and thus I was giving every ounce of Wayne that I could to demonstrate to the Principal that he made the correct hiring decision! After about the third month I was exhausted! One day I quietly tip toed into the Kindergarten Class just as they were getting ready for their afternoon nap! They all had their pillows with them and were unwillingly getting ready to put their heads down! As soon as they saw me they got all restless and the Kindergarten teacher wasn't very impressed!--So! She told them that I had arrived to join in the nap! ( Nice one!) So! I grabbed myself a small pillow of a pupil that was away that day, layed on the floor amongst all the smiling and giggling children and closed my eyes, thinking that if they saw I was pretending to sleep they would settle down and do the same! Well you can guess what happened next! I fell asleep! About 40 minutes later the Principal of the School is shaking my shoulder asking me if I had a nice nap!---I thought! OH! OH! There goes my teaching career! He just had a pleasant smile on his face, he asked me to join him in his office, as all the children were starting to awake from their nap! Once inside his office, he told me that was the nicest seal of approval that he had seen any teacher demonstrate to the Kindergarten Pupils in many years! He explained that he understood how committed I was in doing my best for all the students and suggested that I take a day off just to get some sleep! WOW! I couldn't believe it! That was sure a change from the School Principal's that I had when I was a Student! SO! 245810!!!!! Your reflections this day are duly noted! Thanks for bringing back that pleasant memory for me! Best Regards, Wayne J.
