Last day at COP

Wow, I finished my last day at COP today!! To be honest, I don't feel any different about it now that it's gone. I'm sure I'll start missing it in a week or two, but I can wait until then. Anyway, it's not like I'll be having a huge break from skiing. It looks like I'm going to Norquay on Wednesday, Nakiska on Friday and Lake Louise on Monday! Then I'll probably be done skiing in Canada.

But what a day to end on! Today, I think my preschoolers ate something magical for breakfast, because all the things they didn't do yesterday, they completed today- no problemo! It was like having different children to work with! But honestly, it was one of the most fantastic days I've had at COP- especially for preschool!

The weather today was the same as yesterday- foggy although it was much much icier...I almost slid into an intersection....but I didn't so it's all good! And I even slowed down earlier and went alot slower than I usually do- expecting the roads to be like an ice rink- and even then I still slid around!! A little freaky, but I made it to work safe and sound. The fog cleared up by noon, and it was just cloudy and snowing. The snow was alright- there were some sections of sheer ice and then you would hit a clump of fresh snow which would stop you in your tracks and make you fall over--I had a few kids do that...funny to watch..but then it grew tiring after a while, because I had to hike back up to help them stand up again. But overall, fantastic day, roaring like dinosaurs.

This morning, we shared stories of what's happened to kids while we've been teaching- I heard lots of stories of boogers and peeing pants and even vomiting on the hill--which I am so glad I didn't get to see!! Although, I must say I've experienced some pretty good booger stories... (I know where the phrase snotty nosed kid comes from!)

Alright, well that's it for me!
