First, we read this wonderful story about a gingerbread baby who runs away from everyone he meets. Then we realized that OUR gingerbread baby was missing from our shelf! We decided to go look for her.
To our amazement, we soon learned that our gingerbread baby had run over a teacher in the hallway. She told us that she just saw a blur of brown and heard someone say, "Catch me if you can!".
We helped Mrs. Callahan up and gave her hugs. We promised to find that little gingerbread baby!
We looked on the first grade hall and stopped in Mrs. Kastner's classroom. Mrs. Kastner informed us that she saw some little person messing with her tape player this morning. Before she could say anything, the gingerbread baby ran toward the media center yelling, "Catch me if you can!".
We looked lots of other places, and FINALLY found our gingerbread baby in the CLINIC!
Nurse Jeannie said that the gingerbread baby came to her and complained that her leg was hurting. Nurse Jeannie bandaged her up and she was ready to come back with us to our classroom. We are so happy to have her back!
