First day back for preplanning, getting ready for my 23rd class! A little sleepy and a little sweaty, but I'm excited and looking forward to another great year with my awesome team. And I am LOVING the superhero theme-makes my nerdy little heart so happy! 🦸‍♀️ #edusky #thirdgrade

At the Gulf Speciman Lab and the first stop is a darkened room named "The Picklelarium." Literally the most mad scientist room I've ever set foot in.

Went on a walk today and found... a new batch of wildflowers, mysterious berries, and a ladder to nowhere. #somethingbeautiful

So, I have a writing tradition. Every time I type THE END on a new MS, I get a commemorative T-Shirt. Something meaningful to the book to remind me what a big deal finishing a draft is.

This week I got my latest! I know typing the end isn't really the end, but I'm celebrating. #kidlit #middlegrade
