P52: Week 35 around the sun

This was an exciting week...school started! 

I was a gigantic ball of nerves the first few days of the week. One minute I was so excited and the next I was freaking out! All the worrying was for naught though, it's just like getting back on a bike, I've realized.

We're off to a great start! My adorable gang came bouncing in on day 1 like they hadn't been out all summer at all. It made me smile. We're still getting to know each other, but it is different than last year when I was brand spanking new, this year I am familiar with these kiddos from being around last year. 

I forgot how tiring teaching is too! I've had a massive adrenaline drain each night. I had my UFX class 2x this week, which gave me a little second wind, but also secured my conking out by 9:45 each night! I managed to squeeze in a quick dinner out one night, I mean, you have to celebrate the 1st day of school, right? 

Highlight of the week: The year starting off super well! I can tell it will be a great year!

Favorite teaching moment: Ok, this might be one of the parents seeing all the labels and such in the class and remarking "wow, this is great, kids love structure without realizing it's there!" - validation!! 

Random-osity: I have this weird habit where I put paperclips onto my belt loops when I take them off a stack of papers. Clearly, I never took them off my work pants. I've already found a nice collection from the first few days of wearing "real" clothes!
I'm working on growing the blog's facebook page - won't you please join me over there as well? I post a sampling of the random things around me and would love to connect there (here) too!

I use to LOVE going back to school! Alas, all I'm hearing from my youngest is "UGH!". I just don't get it. Maybe kids need more teachers like YOU :)
