Week two is over, and I survived!!! Most importantly, another Back to School Night is behind me. I am always a little nervous on Back to School Night. This year was no different...... Except Nate had is first Benton Middle School Scrimmage at 5PM, and Back to School Night started at 6:30! AND it was 96 degrees in the shade!!
Needless to say, I was able to watch Natedawg hike the pigskin for almost an hour, and Poppy and I had seats in the shade! Happy Day!
Hopefully, I camouflaged my sweat and body odor so as not to offend the parents of my students?!! Back to School night was pleasant, even though I was secretly worried the parents would notice my slightly orange hands- (from my poor spray-tanning preparations). LOL! If they noticed, they decided to keep it to themselves to avoid embarrassing the poor newbie teacher. It was all good. And over. Another Back to School Night is in the books! And I survived! Whew! Week two is behind us, and we are rolling along.
Perhaps the highlight of my week was listening to the fourth, fifth, and sixth graders sing in chapel this week. It was sweet and pure. Uninhibited praise! Very moving! A Pretty awesome way to begin the day!

A teacher......I was one once too. I used to get nervous about back to school too.
