Missing School

This week, school is back in session.  I've been a little mopey these last couple of days because I wish I could be there.  I have a very nice substitute who I am in communication with.  She is taking a lot of my suggestions.  But being the control freak that I am, it is hard to think about someone else doing my job.  Especially when I think of how important my job is.  The class sounds like a cute bunch.  There are 13 students mostly 5 years old.  That is my favorite age to teach.  Andrea says that I shouldn't be upset because there will be many more first days of school.  Chris says that once I'm back at work I will have wished I had taken the whole year off.  I hope not.  But who knows, only time will tell.  I just have to keep my mind busy with other things until my return, which should not be too far away.

Today was my nephew Peter's first day of school.  Reports are that he went on the bus then into school like a champ!  Of course, we knew he would, he is very independent and not shy at all.  That's our guy!
