 start my day around 5.30 in the morning. On this particular day my coffee filter decided to rip open as I was trying to throw it away so coffee grounds got all over the floor right and early in the morning so of course I had to go get everything I needed to clean that mess up which completely took away at least 10 minutes of my morning. The coffee grounds got all inside of my sock and then my vacuum died so that was perfect. Luckily I was able to get most of the coffee grounds before the vacuum died. Cash is entered into this weird sleep regression where he comes into our bed at like 1 or 3 in the morning almost every single night and ends up sleeping in between us. It's been a bit of a struggle but we're working through it. I decided to wear something super cozy today since it was really cold outside. Every morning I try to give my dogs as much love as I can because they basically spend all day completely alone which they're little they don't require too much activity and they're also old so it works out okay. Part of my morning routine is of course making my morning coffee which I'm sure everybody does and then I need to prepare all of the lunches and pack Cash's backpack as well as my gym bag before we leave for the day. Then eventually when Cash wanders out I get his breakfast prepared which is usually some sort of chocolate protein shake and a waffle and one of my tricks is I cover the waffle in whipped cream and then he really really wants to eat it. Breakfast is such a huge struggle for him I don't know why but he just doesn't like eating breakfast. Once I get to school it's time to get to work. Cash has been coming into the classroom with me every morning which has been fine. He's really learned how to let me get my work done and he plays with the rot. He plays with the kids in the next door classroom while I get my morning duties done. This usually entails checking the daily agenda making sure that everything is set to go and my daily slides are ready and all links and Google websites are up and ready to go for me to use. My teacher came in this morning just to chat with me about something real quick and then it was time to take Cash down to preschool. That's a good reason there Jaz. Jackson are you waffles or pancakes? Pancakes? Okay why? Sticks inside the little holes okay. So the pancake might be more absorbent but the waffle will keep the syrup on top. Maybe not absorb it as much. True that's true it won't make it down into the other waffles if you stack them. You guys all talk? All right oh perfect. Thank you those of you that are showing me you're done. All right wrap wrap wrap it up. Wrap wrap wrap it up. All right I want to just see real quick. Who is team pancakes? Okay and hands down. Who is team waffles? Oh Kai you shot that thing up like a firework. Kai why on earth are you team waffles? Explain Jackson would you mind sharing with everyone your reasoning for the waffle? That syrup really settles into those holes and doesn't get absorbed by the pancakes so you get a little more syrup in every bite okay. Very interesting topic that one was brought to you by Miss Groff. Very controversial. That one was really nice. Strawberries. All right for 90 seconds of SEL this morning. If you're on TikTok I use the Miss R projects SEL slides every day with my students and they absolutely love them they're definitely more positive each day every time we use them and then of course I chose the rowdiest of boys in my class to help me model how sound waves travel through air from the sound source to some other object in that case it was a windshield this is a mystery science lesson and then Jessica my student teacher and I got to eat lunch together this is a really nice time we get to kind of decompress talk about how the lesson goes she's been doing a lot of observing me the first two blocks of the day and then she's been taking over the third block of the day at least two days a week you can see another sound wave model here and I knew that the boys I picked would do a good job then I get to sit back and watch Jessica teach block three which is really fun for me to do and then of course I get to kind of peek around and help the kiddos with their conversations and I'm listening on what they're talking about and what they're observing and things like that so I love this part of my day this missile after that I typically go to the gym for about an hour and on this particular day I ended up going to Trader Joe's for our quick little grocery haul for the week I didn't get too too much but enough to last us for a couple days then we made dinner together and we hung out as a family typically we'll play like a board game with cash or we'll just kind of hang out the kitchen our house is a wreck please don't judge me I'm a working mom and then of course I get things ready for the next day Scott and I are pretty good team he gets cash ready for bed I make the lunches and clean the kitchen and then I'll go in for the last bit of the night before cash falls asleep and this usually ends around 7 30 in the evening so that is a day in my busy teacher mom life I hope you guys enjoyed it and I'll see you in the next video bye
