Reading??

Hi everyone. I am still unpacking my endless supply of boxes and trying to set up my new house. I can't wait for you all to see it. It certainly won't be done, but it will be on its way! Meanwhile, I hope you are all reading Of Mice and Men as you prepare yourselves for Christmas. Rememer what Chris taught us - you don't always need more stuff to find happiness. In fact, his great lesson was, of course, that happiness was only good when shared. It is those with whom you share happiness that make your life good. Chris never made it out to be with those he love. Since we aren't trapped in Alaska (thank God!) let's remember to love those around us and share our happiness with them - presents or not!

While your at it, discover the truth and pain of brotherly love as you read your new book. Steinbeck was a master storyteller, and this great look at the lives of Lenny Small and George Milton is no exception. I look forward to discussing it with you when we return to school in 2010.

See you all Wednesday!
