Well, not that I plan to test this theory... you know, unless MJ gets mauled at the park, but I can apparently take out 31 five year olds. lol Hmmm... I wonder if there is a practical application for this new found skill of mine.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Thanks for the laugh.<BR/><BR/>Sorry the kids sucked for you today.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25321235.post-84523844986426407242008-05-01T22:27:00.000-04:002008-05-01T22:27:00.000-04:00Come back anytime, sogeshirtsguy -- I'm always up ...Come back anytime, sogeshirtsguy -- I'm always up to something.

I'm amazed at the creativity of my young charges when they're allowed to explore it -- something I encourage whenever possible and practical.janey jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05176443321771697655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25321235.post-88067481160262878232008-05-01T21:52:00.000-04:002008-05-01T21:52:00.000-04:00Being a choir director is a very challenging job. ...Being a choir director is a very challenging job. Ours (at the middle school where I teach and my daughter is a student) is incredible. She is directing our production of The Seussical right now (tomorrow is opening night), and I am blown away by her ability to get the entire 150 kids eating out of her hand the minute she opens her mouth. Your job must be fun. Whenever I hear little kids singing, I get tears in my eyes (literally).Mrs4444https://www.blogger.com/profile/06426176094895489541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25321235.post-38247659697138361702008-05-01T15:46:00.000-04:002008-05-01T15:46:00.000-04:00lol at a little less emo and a little more elmo.

I can't imagine doing a choir with young children.
