Back to School


Well I guess summer had to end sometime and I would have to eventually go back to school. But it just seemed too soon this year. I know I am very fortunate to even have a summer but I promise you...it is well needed! But despite how long I want my summer to last...it ended and I started back on Monday. The kids came back today. I walked in this morning to 17 smiling 1st graders! It was a good day. But my husband really helped start it off right. This is my 3rd year to teach and every year from him I have gotten flowers and a card on the first day of school. I kind of thought I might not get them this year because the first year was of course for my first year and the second year was because I was at a new school, so I thought well...I shouldn't expect them this year! But he did and they were beautiful and his cards always make me laugh! I just have to share that his card was a sympathy card and it said "in your time of pain!" It took me a second to get it and I would have never thought to even do that! I had a great first day with my new set of 1st graders!

You know Riley can't just get a normal card...he has to do something "funny!"
