I Made It!

Well, yesterday was my first day to work.  Getting up in the morning was so hard!  I think Natty had the hardest time though.  She has grown quite accustomed to me being home the past 2 months.  She was me walking up the walkway to our apartment in the afternoon, then I went out of view for a minute, and I could hear her screaming in the apartment.  It's nice to know I am missed.  Nathan seemed to miss me too.  He sure gave me the greatest smiles to come home to.  He sure is a happy baby - smiles a whole lot - and he's starting to giggle.  It is so wonderful to see how he's developing.

Work went, well, FAST!  I have a different schedule this year.  First off, I have all 8th graders, which I kind of like because I don't feel like I'm spreading myself too thin.  Next, I like not having students first thing in the morning, because they are in exploratory.  The downside is my lunch goes by real fast because I have academic support right after lunch.  I teach 2 pull out classes this year, so I feel like I have some nice breaks in between the day now, instead of running back and forth between 7th and 8th grade, depending on who needed what.

I trade today - Thursday with another teacher, so I don't have to go in again until Friday.  That kind of make returning a more smooth transition.  Next week will be my full week back, along with Saturday school duty at the end of the week. 

Oh well, I'm just so thankful to be home with the kids AND have our anniversary off!  I cannot believe Tim and I have only been married for 3 years.  With 2 kids now, it sure feels a lot longer, but I am so thankful to have Tim in my life.  We are loving every minute of our newly found chaos.  :)

Happy Tuesday!
