Things did not nearly go as planned, but they still went well. Could not have asked for more than that.
I think that it will be a good year. There will be (lesson)writer's block, tears, doubts, and fears, but there will also be laughter, hugs, beautiful innocence, pure curiosity, and lots of learning for both students and teacher alike.
I had so many encouraging words coming my way last night and this morning, and I can't capture how thankful I am for all of that. It helped me shove the doubts away and walk into that classroom with confidence, knowing that it was okay not to know it all yet.
I'm so tired. I think I might be in bed before 11 tonight. Whoa -- times they are a-changin'.
