But today is the first required day back. Not only that, but it is also Back to School Night! Yes, you read that right. Now do you see why I went into school yesterday? I went in to take the stack of furniture out from underneath the tarps and from it's two leveled height on one side of the room. The janitor, whom I love, assisted me in wiping the few milimeters of dust off of all of the surfaces. It's been a long summer for many at my school.
With all this, I have remained calm. Today, I am determined, will be no exception. And when I do start stressing and freaking out, I hope to remember my time at the river and with loving friends and family. I am so blessed to have so many talented, loving, and caring people in my life. They have rejuvenated me this summer. While I am never ready to bid farewell to summer, I know that this summer was well-spent. I know that my heart is ready to pour into a new set of students.
I was thinking today, as I drove toward home, how proud I am to be your mom. I hope that all went well today--what a challenging way to start a school year!
