...not really. But isn't this picture awesome? This is the Krampus. And that thing in his hand is a bunch of switches to beat kids with. Or with which to beat kids, if you're that kind of proper person. My friend Heather told me about him. Apparently, the whole story of Santa didn't make it over the big pond. In Europe, they tell the kids the Krampus rides with Santa in his sleigh and he (the Krampus, that is) snatches up the bad kids and throws them in the pit of hell. Nice, huh? I'm one more "SIT DOWN AND GET QUIET!" away from showing my kids this picture....

Your last line made me smile even bigger than I was already from reading your post. It immediately brought to mind some teachers that I should send you blog to (or to which I should send your blog) :) Thanks for making me smile and good luck getting through the madness!
ReplyDeleteHEE HEE! Thanks, Melissa! It's just a matter of survival at this point!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely look forward to your posts...children through the eyes of a seasoned educator. Happy Holidays.
ReplyDeleteSo...did you end up showing the picture to your kids? I love reading your blog...I always thought teachers should write books about what happens in their classrooms! Kids can be so funny and frustrating at the same time!
ReplyDeletehe he, Lynn, no, I didn't have to pull out the Krampus...they were so cute the last day before break!
