Shirts

My married name was Shurtz (pronounced shirts).  So, when I substitute for the younger grades, I draw a shirt on the board and write Ms. Shurtz inside.  This picture was drawn by a second grader and put a smile on my face.  She gave it to me on a Thursday afternoon in November.  It had been a long week.  I was in the 7th classroom (and 3rd school) in 4 days.  The teachers had grade-level meetings at the district office that week.  So, Tuesday I was subbing for a kindergarten teacher in the morning and a different kindergarten teacher in the afternoon.  Same for first grade on Wednesday and second grade on Thursday.  I was exhausted.  So, I really appreciated the thought that went into this simple drawing.  She signed her name at the bottom so I can remember who it's from.
