"There's my reading teacher!"

Ran into one of my kiddos at a local eatery on Sunday afternoon. I love when this happens, because it always takes a moment for the kids to process seeing me outside of "school." Processing who I was was especially challenging for this child on Sunday because I had sunglasses on, and my hair has been cut and colored since the last time he saw me. So it took him a few seconds, but he figured it out and said (pointing at me), "There's my reading teacher!" I love that!

Mom came over and introduced herself, and we chatted a bit. These chance run-ins are always nice because I get to actually meet parents - something that rarely happens. I'm trying to think of some ways to remedy that... I'll keep ya posted on what I come up with!
