I had the chance to go to a teacher's conference in Mexico City this weekend and because of that, I am absolutely pooped!
I will just make this short and sweet because I have a confession to make....
I have lived an hour away from Mexico City for about 8 years of my life and the only time I really "chilled out" there was when I was 17 years old visiting Mexico for the first time when I was on a high-school trip. I'm not really sure why I don't visit more often.
It is quite beautiful.
Quite modern, and I have yet to see a donkey there, just in case you were wondering.
I have seen many donkeys around my house though. Not that you asked.
I walked out of the hotel to find this lady working.
and selling her wares....
and I remembered for about the millionth time, that Mexico is a magical place.
Whereever you are you can get caught up in the day to day.... sometimes you need to break out of the routine to remember that whoever we are, whereever we are, there is most likely something magical around the corner, we just sometimes forget to look for it.
Sometimes we forget that we have magic inside of us. I quoted Dr. Seuss because I remembered that I like to rhyme and write poems and read these kinds of books with my students and it is thanks to a very talented speaker and author that I met at the conference that I am on a quest to find even more magic....
