First day jitters

Hello friends! I have a book called First Day Jitters. It is all about this girl not wanting to start at a new school, she's nervous, she doesn't want to get out bed etc...at the end of the book you find out that girl was the teacher. That was me today. I did not want to go to a new school. I was nervous to meet my co-workers and the kids in my class. I tried not to show my uneasiness in front of my kids b/c I wanted them to be excited! Anyhow, it all turned out ok. The kids in my class are terrific and the teacher I work with is nice...very quiet, but nice. The picture on the left was taken before we left for school. Jackson has a new toothbrush and when I took it away he cried, so therefore he has it in the picture. :) They both had a good day, in fact, when I went to pick up Jackson, he was laying on the floor asleep!! I was shocked! It was nap time in his room (they sleep on mats in the floor). Never in my wildest dreams did I think he would go to sleep on the FLOOR! He did, I hated to wake him, but I had put in my 4 hours and was ready to go!

Today was a very busy day. It feels nice to sit down and and relax. The kids were in bed and asleep before 8! Now it's ME time! Craig is at practice, he won't be home until 10 or so.

This weekend I met the 6 girls whom I am mentoring, they live in one of the ministry houses on campus. They were all so sweet! I'm in the works of putting a little goody basket together for them. So far it has some cleaning products, bottles of water and some candy. I made cookies to put in but they FLOPPED! I was bummed!

Well, I need to get to some laundry. Have a great day!
