Are they synonyms? Antonyms? Similes? I still can't figure it out....



We were working on an adorable pumpkin project yesterday, and the kids were coloring their paper pumpkins in a most colorful and unique way.  They were all using brand-new markers and were talking (somewhat) quietly amongst themselves while they worked.

I was sitting with George while I colored a triangular pumpkin of my own.  We were having a quiet conversation when I heard Jack at the next table say something to his neighbor Julia.

“Julia, you know you are crazy about passion!”  he said emphatically.

She smiled.

“Yep, Julia is just crazy about passion,” he said again, with even more conviction.

I turned and looked at him quizzically. “Jack, are you sure you don’t mean fashion?”


He looked a bit confused.  “Oh yeah,” he said finally, “Fashion, passion, same thing. And Julia is just crazy about it.”





I raised my eyebrows as I looked at Julia.  She smiled and nodded her head.  “Yep.  I sure am.”






(Let me know when the Pashion Police call….cause I have their next member…)

As someone who is married, I know I sure miss Passion Week!!! The crazy hairstlyes, the wacky skimpy clothes...

I think no matter what class you teach, you bring out their fun side!
