Do you remember her? She pricked her finger on a spindle. She would have died had it not been for the aid of Merryweather, who was able to soften the curse. Instead she slept until a kiss from her true love woke her.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, it was quite an surprising creature to see at school and I&#8217;m not entirely sure what she would have been doing there. Someone said something about spirit week and I suppose she came for the festivities or perhaps to do something wicked while blending in with the students dressed in costumes. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I went to the school this morning to take a few pictures of the fourth grade class.
