"He should've waited until it was a full moon and taken you on a walk at sunset. Then a werewolf could've attacked you and he would have to defeat it! Then after he killed it, he could pull the ring out of the werewolf's stomach and propose!" #howheshouldhaveproposed #4thgraders
Yesterday I had to convince one of my preschoolers that even though rubbing two dry things together can sometimes start a fire, me brushing the snow off his jacket would not, in fact, cause it to burst into flames. I love my job. #preschool #ecechat #edchat #joyinthelittlethings

#thankful for the cracks, snaps, and trembling in my body as I worked on this today, and the mindset of #health and #selflove @yogawithadriene brings to my mornings. #joyinthelittlethings xitter.gq/yogawithadriene/status…
TRUE - Day 5 - High - mailchi.mp/fwfg/true-day-05-… Today, we synchronize to stimulate, awaken, and align.
Be patient and kind to yourself today! It’s not about syncing up with me as much as it is about synching up with YOU.
Today we use yoga and pranayama to light it up.

I had a case of the Mondays, but then I remembered how much I laughed with my students and coworkers last week. I'm so ready to do that again! #joyinthelittlethings #edchat #mondays #ilovewhatido #preschool
Surrounded by my favorites this Sunday morning. (Not pictured: My husband playing his video game. :) ) #loveourlife #joyinthelittlethings

A6b: Brightens my day to see so many shout-outs to PLNs that are helping you all grow! #bettertogether #pln #leadupchat

A6: Hard question. So many great coworkers/friends/passionate people, and part of my goal is to deepen friendships to keep each other accountable & on track to reach goals. #leadupchat

A5: The most powerful initiatives take on a life of their own - they don’t live with ONE person, but instead, they GROW. As more people BELIEVE in the base, the result morphs into something AMAZING that often would have been inconceivable initially. #leadupchat #powerofbelief

A4: #myoneword is an extraordinary goal this year. Grace is not something I offer myself enough of. I try too hard, work too much, worry too often & try to solve too much of it all. My brave goal: find enough grace to be better for this passion than I’ve ever been #LeadUpChat xitter.gq/tsschmidty/status/9496…
A4: Health - physically, relationally, spiritually, professionally. Restoring myself so I can serve others. #leadupchat

A4: Be courageous in addressing anything that is not good for children. If I lack bravery to address that which erodes a culture of learning, I permit failure for kids, colleagues, and our community. #leadupchat
"Extraordinary and amazing things come from setting goals that never point back to the person setting the goals but to the others they impact." Love it. #leadupchat xitter.gq/cpudawg2k9/status/9496…
A3 Servitude. Extraordinary and amazing things come from setting goals that never point back to the person setting the goals but to the others they impact. That spirit I feel is what we all strive to do on a daily basis. #leadupchat

A3: With a little move love...if we understand that every action we take as school leaders should be done out of love for people, we could do extraordinary things! #leadupchat

A3: For me personally, the word might be patience -- having the patience to see through goals. It is easy to want to see change come about more quickly than it will naturally. #leadupchat
A3: How can I choose between JOY, TEAMWORK, and PASSION? Can I say all three? #leadupchat
A2: My failure in the past is that I have established goals based professional terms only. I am horrible about taking care of myself...I need personal goals. I have a goal of prioritizing personal goals! (We can have a goal to set a goal, right?!) :) #leadupchat

a2 I have planned goals but my new goal is to stop thinking negatively when what I want to do is interrupted by something else. #leadupchat
A1: Resolutions are a Right-here-right-now-cold-turkey kind of change. Goals give time for more self-love and reflection. #leadupchat

What joy these sweethearts bring! I can't imagine a better job to come back to after a long break. #choosejoy #edchat #preschool #teaching #rpslead
