Denny vs Peter

So I know I've talked about my class crushes in past blogs, so I imagine you are somewhat familiar with at least their names. And if you aren't, Denny was my first crush, has an amazing personality, is smart, funny, and is 9 years old. Peter is a newer student that I acquired last month and speaks excellent English, is also 9 years old, and is very shy.

Now as a teacher, I realize discussing the issue may be totally inappropriate. But I simply can't hold it in. They really are so darn cute and I very much look forward to seeing them in each and every class. I would also like to throw in the following disclaimer:

I am not now, nor have I ever been a pedophile.

I feel as though I should be allowed to express my gratitude for being blessed with such adorable students. Besides, crushes are harmless....right!?! Well allow me to share with you some recent photos. You can be the judge!

(Denny is hiding in the chairs to SURPRISE ME! So clever!)

(Peter is a little more camera shy - in the stripes!)
