quick post:

at the end of my school day yesterday,

around 2:30-ish,

i was helping Subhan,

one of the little first-grade boys,

revise and edit his writing.

his writing was very good,

but the capitals & punctuation

were non-existent.

so, in the last ten minutes of the day,

i sat with him explaining a sentence is not a sentence

without those two things.

[you know how we teachies do...]

*

*

next thing I know,

he looks away from his paper

and up at me.

I said,

"What?"

*

*

then...

...with those big,

grey,

first-grader

eyes

Subhan said,

"Miss Zampelli, you make my brain work."

*

*

OH.

*

*

LORD.

*

*

IN HEAVEN.

*

*

he absolutely made my day.

probably made my week, and

my heart is ten notches bigger than it was yesterday morning.

*

*

*

Happy Thursday.

What is something this week that

suddenly made the mouth go...{{cheek-to-cheek}}...for you??
