Patriotic Parade

Connor's class had a patriotic parade today. It was early this morning so I had my assistant watch my class while I went to view this parade. Funny story, Connor's building is just far enough away from mine that I don't want to walk. So I decided I would drive over a few minutes early so I wouldn't miss a thing. The parade was at 8:00 so car line was finished but the school resource officer was still hanging around. Normally, I don't drive during this time because I am teaching in my own room so I don't really remember the speed limit on the back roads that connect all the schools. Well the Deputy sure enough pulled me over right in front of Connor's school. He saw my name tag and "let me off the hook" but I was worried I was going to miss the parade. Luckily I made it in time to watch Connor and Caleb march so proudly down the hallways, waving their flags, and smiling so bright. It's a parade I won't soon forget!
