Back to school...

It is here! To all my teacher friends out there, the new school year is upon us! I am usually really excited about the start of a new year. There is something about the smell of freshly sharpened pencils and brand new crayons that gets me every time. This year however, I am entering the year with mixed emotions. I am eager to meet my new students and excited to get to know them and all that they have to offer. But I would be lying if I said I wasn't eager about another more important arrival! I am trying to stay focused on my new classroom of kiddos but it is a challenge! I know that once I meet them, on Friday (really?) the excitement will return. I always imagined what it would be like to be pregnant and preparing for motherhood. I didn't really think about what it would be like to prepare a classroom for someone else. With that said I know that things will be different this school year, and I know that there are new challenges. I am heading into the year with a positive attitude and as much energy as I can find 35 weeks pregnant! Here is to a great school year!
