Well, I made it through (I should say that I ate it through) all the Christmas cookies & every chocolate candy dish. I even made it through the 'visit' from the "grand-dogs". Believe me when I say that truly tested all my parenting skills. But that will have to wait for another day and a clearer mind to share the details.
I have always looked forward to every vacation that is scheduled during the school year. I think it gives me a much needed fresh perspective as I return to work. Even though I was able to easily fill each vacation day with 'choices', maybe clean out a closet (not!) or sew some quilts for Hospice (with love), I find myself missing my school family. I may not touch base each morning with everyone on Mayport's campus, but I always keep them in my thoughts. Did they have as much fun as I did? Are they feeling calm and peace as I feel this morning? Will anyone come back to work with any surprises?
This fact will always be true.....I love Mayport Elementary, the people I work with, the children I teach each day, and the community that I feel apart of. Happy New Year, Everyone! See you in a few days. ;o)
