To double border or not to double.... is it even really a question!? 😂😂
Usually it’s not, but this time I’m stuck so let me know which you like better the rainbow and polka dotties OR chalkboard swirls?

I’ve been trying to get as much done as I can during Leo’s naps but with his room right next to where I was working, blasting some music was a no go🙅🏽‍♀️ Then I remembered I had these earphones so now I can play all the T. Swift I want and not have to worry about waking him up! (Unless I start singing too loud 🙊😂)

⭐️ The Tolv headphones are wireless and come in several different colors!
⭐️ The case is so compact and cute!! (Swipe to see a photo of it!)

Todo para la familia 💕
Everything for the family💕

Some of you may know, but I bet a lot of you don’t. I am Hispanic and I was raised to be proud of this and love my family’s culture! I mean, it’s hard not to love tacos and tamales but our culture is so much more than that!
Now that I have Leo, I want to raise him to know this culture, respect it, love it. My grandpa’s name was Juan and although Leo will never meet him, his middle name is in honor of my grandpa because of the incredible, kind, loving, hilarious man he was.

Tell me something unique about your family! And bonus points if you remember what tv show this quote is from!

Because the world needs more pineapples! Let’s teach kiddos to be proud of themselves. 🍍
Do you have any great bulletin board quotes in your room?

Questions, so many questions...that’s all we have right now. Not sure how or if we’re going back. And if we go back, what will it look like?
🤍
We were told no cushions, pillows or stuffed animals. No curtains, extra rugs or anything that can’t be sprayed and wiped clean. It’s weird to think about my room without all of these things but I just have to remember that it’s not the stuff that makes a class a family.
🤍
The one thing we know for certain is that things are going to be different but no matter where we are teaching, whether it’s in a classroom filled with kids or our make shift home offices, we will never stop being teachers💕

Our little Leo is 9 months! I can’t even believe it! While you still have no teeth, that hair just keeps growing! You bring us more joy than we’ve ever known! Here’s a few things Leo’s been up to this past month and if course a few of our favorite pics!

🦁 Leo had his first lake weekend and loved being on the boat! Water was a little cold but he thought the boat and the baby pool on the dock were just right! 🚤

🦁Although the lake was too cold, our pool is finally warm enough and this kid loves to swim in his floatie! He kicks his legs and does his “happy head” when he is able to move by himself in the pool! 💦

🦁 Leo is always trying to interact with people and recently has been giving everyone scrunchy nose smiles! Usually followed by a squeal of happiness 😆

This month Leo also had his 2nd and hopefully last eye surgery and saw a new GI specialist who we are very hopeful will be able to figure this little man out! But no matter what, you are brave, you are strong and you are loved more than you can ever imagine Leo John! 💕💕

This year ended with no hugs, no class party, no goodbye bulletin boards but it ended with appreciation, love, and hope.
I think next year this board will say “We came as strangers, we left as FAMILY”💕

Happy summer everyone! How do you feel now that the year is over? ☀️

When I don’t know how to explain things to my students or when I’m not sure of the right words, I read, I learn and then I can act. It’s never too early to start talking to kids about race and it’s never too late to start talking to adults about it as well. 📚 💕
Thank you to and for these wonderful and helpful images! @ Rochester, New York

😍😍😍 all the feels for this weekend!

What do you do or where do you go to recharge? @ Finger Lakes Region, NY

Hi! 🤗 I haven’t done this in awhile, so I wanted to take the time to introduce myself! To do that let’s play a little game of 3 TRUTHS and a LIE!

1. I was born in California and growing up we also lived in Italy, Canada Colorado and now upstate New York

2. I’ve been married for almost 3 years and we have the cutest little guy. Together, we run a dog walking business on the side!

3. I love to travel, especially to anywhere where we can swim and snorkel. I have swam with sharks, manatees, sea turtles, dolphins and even pigs!

4. Growing up, I was a competitive figure skater! I did individual skating as well ice dance with a partner and now I am also a coach working with young competitors!

So which one is the lie!? Let me know in the comments what you think!! And also let me know if we have anything in common! I’ll share on stories tomorrow which are true and which one is a lie! 💕
