And I also cannot believe that I have not read every blog the minute they came out. Thank you for all the compliments all the way through, and I do believe that when you were thinking about Teach for America, when you were breaking the barrier bringing veganism to The Nation as an intern there three summers ago and Vandersomething or someone said TFA would be your book and you are there now writing your book, I believe your book now is your children. You write in them everyday and they will be your books, sources of knowledge and love in their own lives. I love you.Lorettahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00533232851232073562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3152443739028377690.post-9126079620203364802009-09-29T14:26:17.679-05:002009-09-29T14:26:17.679-05:00james left very insightful comments! here is what ...james left very insightful comments! here is what i have to say:<br /><br />1. a class hedgehog is almost as cool as class monkeys/iguanas/poisonous snakes. it's pretty cool. i want one.<br />2. you are perfect just like a freshly squeezed baked potato.Alexis Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03829526652980552828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3152443739028377690.post-54984485351307106442009-09-28T09:44:54.919-05:002009-09-28T09:44:54.919-05:00Also, one more thing.

The other day I went to the Tate Modern here in London and there was a piece where an artist would turn African tribal masks around so all you could see was the back of them, in an effort to highlight how when we display these sacred pieces in our museums we are only aware of the presence of the mask, rather than the absence of the person wearing it.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17516638517406596094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3152443739028377690.post-24978260997862560662009-09-28T09:23:58.236-05:002009-09-28T09:23:58.236-05:00Three thoughts upon reading your post:

Also, all of these words start with the letter "C," so if you ever had to find all of them in the dictionary in a short amount of time, it would be relatively easy.<br /><br />2) I wish every second grader had you as a teacher, though this would be a classroom management nightmare. You're incredible.<br /><br />3) Finally, in response to this blog post, it makes me happy when you are happy. You sound happy in this post. Like you are having funder and lightning.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17516638517406596094noreply@blogger.com
