I mean it ya'll. Do it.

Till. You. Are satisfied.

My mom is pretty fantastic.

 Mom and Cole, my nephew.

You see, when my roommate woke me up this morning at 7:52, I had a feeling that was just the start to a very long day. School starts at 8... aka - bad news. We walked in the door at 8:03. Now, I don't know what you think, but I think that's rather impressive.

The thing is, today my mom sent me a care package. She nailed it.

Cheez-its (I could make a veiled David Blaine parody reference here, but I won't.)
Neon sour worms
Gum
Mentos

These things were perfect for sharing with my students.

Purell - fantastic for teachers.

Pistachios - delicious. A+.

Photos of my nephews - exactly what I needed.

Sudoku Mania book - I just finished my old book. Yesterday. Not kidding.

CinnaMint toothpaste - I haven't lived at home for 5 years. How does she know that's the only kind I'll use?

A loofa - I've been wanting to buy a new one.

Linen-scented Air Freshener - Also the only type I'll use.

Carmex - My lips are so chapped.

Fuzzy socks - Completely unnecessary, but still.

Fake nails for little girls - I put them on immediately. The fifth graders LOVED them.

Also - straws that create chocolate milk when you use them. WHAT?!?!

Today was a good day. I love my mom.
