Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2565556/fan_mail/new] School these days, huh? "You're more than a test but test test test!"  Join me and Emily, my best-friend-since-high-school, soulmate, and accountability partner while we discuss her day-to-day as an *amazing* fourth-grade teacher and how beautiful it is to do, but also how hard and exhausting it is to maintain.   She's one of the good ones, folks. All around.  I left in some of our shenanigans because, well...ya gotta have 'em. May your children get the chance to have a teacher like her, and may you have a friend with whom you can be like this.  Keep watching, reading, listening, and weaving - the answers are waiting for you!
