@jimmyfallon So sorry! You’re not kidding when you say the house is so quiet and the quiet is so loud. That’s the worst part of losing a dog.

She was the last name we signed on every birthday card. She was our first baby, a therapist, a pillow, a big sister, a schoolmarm, a comedian, a party girl and a rebel. Definitely not a watchdog—she would have let burglars in and shown them where we kept the bacon and American cheese slices. Always smiling even when she slept. She loved a good scratch and would lean into you if she liked you, though "if" is generous—she did this for basically everyone. She would jump into the pool immediately after being shampooed and dried (noooooo!) then she'd do her laps (backstroke - jk doggie paddle) then lie in the grass on her back doing bunny kicks with her tongue sticking out. That meant summer to me. 13 and a half years we were lucky to have with you. Franny, Winnie, Mommy and I miss you. The house misses you. The house is so quiet. The quiet is so loud. But that quiet is slowly being filled with stories about you and laughter amongst the sniffles. Thank you for everything. Gosh, we miss you so much. Goodnight, Gary.

Best thing on the internet all year

This was the front page of UNC-Chapel Hill's Daily Tar Heel. No student, no parent, and no American should have to send texts like these to their loved ones as they hide from a shooter. I'll continue to do all I can to reduce gun violence and call on Congress to do the same.

Once again, our nation mourns after a senseless act of gun violence – Jill and I pray for the lives lost and impacted by today's shooting. Too many Americans are paying for the price of inaction with their lives. When will Republicans in Congress act to protect our communities?

So many ways to use picture books in the classroom - @SamanthaTivnan is a pro! @DunnPrincipal @DunnDolphinsAP @LibraryDunn

🎉 50 YEARS | @dunn_jcps will host its 50th anniversary celebration tomorrow at 6 p.m.! The community is invited to visit the school to help celebrate this milestone and see memorabilia, student exhibitions on the tornado that hit Dunn in 1974, a time capsule, & more! #WeAreJCPS

@DunnPrincipal I know someone 🤔!

Yes, I need to get on that!

@dog_rates @bijouby The @dog_rates ALT button is the best thing on Twitter right now!

This is Chancho. He just got a cool new hat. Thinking about making it his signature look. 12/10

@LibraryDunn @JerryCraft @JCPS_LMS Sounds like @JCPS_LMS put on a great conference for you all! I’m a little envious that you got to meet some legends!

Such a great talk by #NewberyAwardWinningAuthor @JerryCraft to close out #JCPSLSA2022 Interesting backstory- A reminder of the impact educators should be striving for. ❤️📚❤️#graphicnovels #JCPSLibraries @JCPS_LMS

@aud_beck It was so much fun to watch you and your teammates in person! 💛🖤💛🖤 Great job @CentreAthletics for the publicity you gave the team during the championship meet.

@vaughtsviews @Centre_Bball @centrebball @CCWBasketball @czthdy1 They were at the Centre swim meet last weekend. They love their Colonels and their Colonels love them!

One great thing about going to watch @centrebball or @CCWBasketball is that you might just see former Centre president John Roush and his wife Susie sitting on the front row still supporting the Colonels. @czthdy1 photo

@SamanthaTivnan It looks amazing! We might have to make you an honorary librarian!

During NTI I got to fix up the library a bit and organize and label it better. I absolutely LOVE seeing students run the library themselves, enjoying a book on the couch, or with a pillow on the floor. Definitely a favorite spot in the room ☺️

@aud_beck I’ll happily fly to England with you!

@SamanthaTivnan Super-cute idea for your classroom door! They did a great job!

Finally got in on the door decorating contest last minute! Love these little artists ☺️

@druley_first @dunn_jcps I love The Wild Robot! You all did an amazing job decorating your door!

Our entry for the Door(way) Decorating contest. #thewildrobot @dunn_jcps

...said no one ever.

@LibraryDunn @JCPS_LMS @DunnPrincipal This performance was too cute! So fun to have students back in the library enjoying books and all of the ways you make literacy fun!

Who doesn’t love live theater!? 🎭 I can safely say our Kindergarteners are born thespians. Five-year old puppeteers are the best! Kicking off our study of fairytales with lots of fun planned ahead. #READ #JerryPinkney #ThreeBillyGoatsGruff #Fairytales @JCPS_LMS @DunnPrincipal
