Things that WE have to do before Jan 1:
*Arrange a moving date
*determine how we are going to handle the florida trip
*go to caroline's wedding
*Develop a game plan for moving across the nation
I have so much going on that I really don't have time to be excited. I don't think I'll really be pumped until school is out...maybe then it will hit home.
When I checked my mailbox at school today, I had a handmade thank you card from one of my students. I think they made them in their High School 101 class....anyway, it was so sweet....that, plus the postcards I got last week, makes me feel like I just might have made a difference here.
Beth-
I think I might have them write Haikus tomorrow. We'll see how that turns out.
I love you. A bunch. But you know that already.
