Back to school night

Today I put on my fancy pencil skirt and my red shoes.

I rehearsed a powerpoint presentation making sure I could run through it in no more than six minutes.

I left school early drove home and returned to school only 2 hours later.

I shook over 100 hands.

I smiled until my cheeks hurt.

I realized how great the parents of my students are.

I gave out hugs to my students from last year and years past.

I met someone from my home town in NJ.

I realized that I really do like back to school night.

I love being a teacher (almost as much as I love a new box of Crayola).

And I really really love a new box of crayola crayons!
