1) thankful for subbing- it makes me feel actually good at something. I love my friend Tara's class- a small group with kids that truly NEED us ... and a few gems that I check my math work with before we go over answers because they are so smart. They don't care if a cry a bit during a read aloud because I know more about nazi Germany than they do yet..sing the whole Mary poppins soundtrack during a math fluency lesson. and the adults in the school make me feel important.
2) mike who got all the kids to school SO I could sub all day!!!! (He's doing it again today too)
3) charity for taking such great care of Henry after preschool- at which he received the October academics award!!!! Yay hank!
4) watching Maisie at jazz come into her own as a dancer! And miss k for being the kind of encourager I want to be in a mom! She is patient and always always praising!
5) and the BEST of all my friend Julie who practiced an act of kindness for ME! While I was running around after subbing she came and took daphne and Ruby and Tate for a walk. And then ----and here's the over the top service- she washed all my dishes by hand (my dishwasher has been broken for 2 weeks plus!) even the ones I've been ignoring in the dishwasher (they had mold growing on them).
Julie Marie- you blessed the socks off of me!
Wednesday night I was googling "nervous breakdown" and Thursday night I went to bed knowing I kicked BUTT and also that my friends and family won't ever let me breakdown completely.
So thankful.......
