though I think it was more salmon than red

Out of the blue, while walking through the hall today...

precocious little girl: Miss Anna, you had long curly hair, a white shirt, and a red skirt the first day you came here [back in August].

Seriously? Wow. She was definitely scoping out the new teacher. Moral of the story...you never know the things a 4-year-old will remember years down the line. You never know the impact of what you are doing or saying, or even the faces you make. Take your job seriously. Be calm, kind, and honest at all times.

Also, it doesn't hurt to look your best. My co-workers give me flack for wearing heels.
