6/365 The end is near.....

Yes.. it truly is.  My winter vacation is coming to an end.. I go back to the classroom on Monday.  I am very excited but sad at the same time.  I'm excited to see how I'll fare in the classroom, trying to manage 21- 7 and soon-to-be 8 year olds.  I'm excited to leave a positive impact on these little minds, as well as sneaking in some fun activities that have no connection whatsoever to standardized testing (BIG SMILES).  Although this excites me, I'm a bit torn between wanting a career and wanting to be a stay-at-home mom.  I already miss my little girl just thinking about it.  It's for the best and I know she's in excellent care (my sister) when I'm at work.  I'll be looking forward to her little arms, stretched as wide as she can, ready to just squeeze me.  And I'm surely gonna squeeze back :)
