All of my students were ridiculously amped up on sugar today, in addition to being completely sleep-deprived. It’s like the 1st Grade hangover. Go go Halloween! Every kid had some frantic, endless story to tell me about trick-or-treating. But the most excited kid, the kid who had to tell me his story twice because he was so excited was Conner. A man placed crackers in Conner’s trick-or-treat bag. Crackers!?! To a seven year old boy, this is the weirdest, most hilarious thing that could ever happen. In fact, the first time he told me about the crackers, he could barely get the story out, he was giggling so much. The second time, he showed me the crackers. And then he ate them.

All my kids were pretty sleepy. And grumpy. But they do make me laugh, even though I didn’t hear any stories about Halloween.
