Happy St. Patrick's Day!  

We had fun today making Leprechaun hats!   It seems the leprechaun was a little mischievous in our classroom too!

Thank you for attending conferences this week. I almost got through everyone's conference before losing my voice completely.  It's been a silly day whispering to the kids today.  They seem to think a leprechaun stole my voice!  Ha!
