Like your Mom, but worse

How sweet is that? You know you are loved by your students when you make the senior wall.

What does that mean, you ask? We have a hallway wall in the high school that is painted white and blocked off into squares each year. Seniors sign up for squares to decorate. The squares stay decorated through the following year when the whole process starts over. The yearbook staff signs up for a four block that the senior staff decorates. This is this year's work. Of course it is an inside joke. I actually had to get help from one of the editors-in-chief remembering what happened. (That is courtesy of having absolutely no memory.) I took the new senior staff out for dinner. I was explaining to them how their roles would change and we would have a tighter relationship. This relationship would be different from what they have with any other teacher. I know more, I'll expect them to tell me more. Then I told them, "Basically I'm like your mom, but worse. . .

And a legend is born.
