Man...
I have really dropped the ball on posting, huh!! In the past two weeks, I have probably cried more than I have in the past 10 years! No not really, but I seem to have my meltdowns about missing my kids on Wednesdays lol. I'm shooting for a tear-free Wednesday this week! So far, so good! For a Monday, today went really well. I have been leading the morning routine (months/days of the week/lunch count/attendance/weather) every morning for a little over a week now. Tomorrow I'm going to lead a guided/independent writing lesson... I'm very nervous, so please send happy thoughts my way around 9:05 tomorrow morning ;) GRACIAS!
I'm so thankful for all of the support from everyone- keeping kids, kind words/thoughts/gifts. I appreciate everything and everyone's help more than you know!
Debbie gave me a book yesterday that is inspirational quotes for teachers (THANK YOU Debbie!). I haven't read all of them yet but I will share one of my favorites that I read yesterday... AND it applies for everyone, not just teachers....
"Dear Jesus, help me not be so busy that I miss the small pleasures You've sprinkled throughout my day....Give me a child's heart that sees the lovely simple things in life." I absolutely LOVE it. Soooo many of life's blessings are overlooked because we're all running around like crazy! If you can, try to slow down even just a little tomorrow and take in everything- even if it means getting up 5 minutes early so that you won't be so rushed. You will notice things and be grateful for things that you so often miss! I am sure I will have more great quotes to share from the book. That one got me through today in much better spirits, though-- so I thought I would go ahead and share :)
Here's a quick couple of pictures I took of the boys with their Grandparent's day project :)
