i had the weirdest day today.
the whole day i was filled with dread and complete antsy restlessness waiting till 4:30 to find out who our teachers would be...
waiting.
dreading.
i could not stay focused on a thing.
i know me...and the dreary weather had a lot to do with it too.
things did not go exactly the way i had hoped and planned they would.
not dreadful by any means....just not exactly what i had planned.
for the planner in me, this is a hard thing.
for the teacher in me this is a harder thing.
i was so proud of my girls for looking for the positives.
especially when i felt anything
but positive.
and oddly enough that made me even sadder.
how silly is that.
{silly unrelated side note...we got bangs ...
so i dropped the girls at home, drove to mcd's for my pizza night coke,
had a good cry,
prayed,
listened to my teacher friend lisa explain the benefits of having things not always go as planned to build children's character and well-roundedness (all of which i know in my head of course) and i suddenly began to feel better.
...and layers...don't we look grown up}
a weight was lifted and i knew things were going to be ok.
just like that...
i told you this was a weird day!
so we are grabbing our remaining week of summer with both hands and holding on tight.
it's gonna be a good one.

the girls walked around the house this morning snapping pictures with my big camera.
i think they have given that baby more of a work-out then i have lately.
see how motivating those girls can be!!:)
oh how i love them.
have a happy day,
cindy
