Wonderful day

Isn't it strange how you can psych yourself up and tell yourself that you must get ready for the worst day in your life? How you dread going back to school because you know that the children are all going to be in bad moods. You just know that they are going to cry for their parents, and there will be nothing you can do - except perhaps cry with them?

Well what do you know? This turned out to be one of the best first days back at school I ever had.  There was one or two kiddies who were sad for a minute or so, but that was it! We all got along splendidly. Of course I had to tell them the rules a few times, showed them how to sit quietly and wait for their friends to finish before going outside to play.

I know that this was only the first day, I also know that I had only 13 kids instead of the normal 21. You know what? I don't care! I went to school this morning with a positive attitude, this is going to be my year. We shall have fun, we shall sing, we are going to make a mess. And that is just great. This year my kiddies and I are going to shine. I even subscribed to twitter. Feel free to follow me: @teachersrmoms. Hope you had a wonderful day ;-)
