Normally, my classroom is very tidy and very quiet. Not so, today. We were making memory books complete with pictures of all our adventures throughout the year. Of course, the children were noisy, messy, and very happy.

Mrs. B: (to the class) Aren't you all impressed that I'm not freaking out about the chaos?

Class: (no reply, too busy and too loud)

Mrs. B: (to Jacob, who is standing right next to me) It's all driving me meshugana, you know.

Jacob: (patting my hand) I know exactly how you feel.
