Kindergarten Field Day

6/17/2015

Welcome back to Taylor Talks!

I have to take a break from foster care posts to write about our wonderful day... it was field day for the kindergarten kids at our elementary school, which meant that I had big sister duties and student teacher duties to fulfill. It was so much fun!

I was excited to go into the classroom to help out all day today. When my student teaching run came to an end, I promised the kids that I would come in to visit whenever there was something fun going on, whether there was a project that they needed help with, or on days like today where things were going to be crazy. Field day was always so much fun when I was in elementary school, so I love going back to help out with it. I helped out last year as a volunteer, but it was one of the hottest days of June. This year was so much better; it was sunny, breezy, and beautiful out.

In addition to helping out with the activities, I was also watching my little sisters participate in the morning's events! Helping out actually gave me the opportunity to stay close to my sisters and get lots of pictures! They were so excited, and it was really cute to watch them cheering on their friends at each activity.

Every year, the school picks some kind of theme for field day. This year, the theme ended up being one of my favorite things in the world: Disney! The kids had to throw rings onto a board that portrayed Pinocchio with a long nose, search for Nemo and his friends in a little kiddie pool, race tires from Cars, run with balloons from Up, carry Frozen ice to a bucket, and build towers in order to break them down like Wreck-It Ralph... the PTA really did a nice job with the day, and all of the teachers and everyone who worked to pull the day off did fantastic work. I was glad to be a part of it.

Though the afternoon was much hotter than the morning, and I did a lot of running around today, it was well worth it to be part of the day and see the kids so happy. I'm so glad that I got to see my little sisters enjoying their kindergarten field day, and that I had the chance to help out all of the kids with whom I have grown so close over the past few months. The school year is rapidly coming to an end... I feel like the last days of school will make more of an impact on me than when student teaching was ending, because now it will really be over. I'm certainly going to miss days like this one!

If you're on Facebook and wouldn't mind showing some support, I would love it if you could like my Facebook author page! When I hit 150 likes, I'll share some information about my first novel, since I've been keeping everything a secret since I started it. I'm still 53 likes away from that goal, so if you're scrolling through Facebook with nothing to do, I'd appreciate you heading over to my page to like and share it!

I’d greatly appreciate it if you would share this blog with friends and family through your favorite social media sites. If you’re sharing on Twitter, don’t forget to tag me (@TayTayK02) and use the hashtag #TaylorTalks.

Thanks!
Taylor

    My family started doing foster care when I was three years old. We took in nineteen children over the course of eighteen years, with our last placement leaving in December 2014. I'm the only biological child in my family, though my parents adopted five of my siblings.

    I love to share my perspective on the foster care system and share how my unique upbringing shaped my life.

    I'm also a Cast Member at Walt Disney World and lover of all things Disney! My career allows me the opportunity to find a little bit of Magic in life every day.


    I enjoy sharing my journey as a writer as well. Find my children's books on Amazon and keep following my blog for updates on future books that I'll be releasing!
