Actually, I don't think that. One of the students I take to school said that this morning. I told her at least it's not Monday. Her and the other student said they like Friday the best. How could I not agree with that one?
It's a perfect spring morning as far as the weather goes. The sun is shining and the birds are chirping. It's not too hot and it's also not cold. Pennsylvania, you did not disappoint today!
It's crazy to think we are inching closer to the last full month of school for the year. I know my kids are ready for vacation. I love my job as a van driver but this morning was a wee bit of a challenge. I now take students to a school that is designed for kids who have been expelled from their public school. The one student I started to take, a middle schooler my daughter knows, is an absolute sweetheart. The new girl I began driving yesterday is going to be my challenge. Tomorrow I began taking someone else, as well. Three kids together. Then I have my two girls to elementary school, the one can have a bit of an attitude towards the other and I reprimanded her on that today. It was rough but then one of the teachers came out and handed this to me, two cookies with a note that says "We would crumble without our amazing bus drivers. Thank you for all your hard work." And that made everything worth it. Also, a text message from my boss last week saying that he's glad I'm part of their company. It's those little things that make the challenges worth continuing.
And today in Pennsylvania it's primary voting day! One of the girls in my van spotted a church with a lot of people and several signs so she was questioning about it. I liked having a chance to explain the voting process to her and what the primary voting day is for. I went in and did my part. My husband is working at the polls helping our friend who is running for our state representative. My fingers are crossed and prayers are being sent it's in God's will for Zak. If not, God has something else in mind and that's okay, too.
This is observation week at my daughter's dance studio. Parents have 10 minute slots for each class where we can come in and watch them rehearse the dances they are doing for the June show. My son also has a baseball game every day this week, but because of my daughter's dance schedule I am only able to make the home games later in the week. If only I had the ability to split myself in two. Any other moms ever feel that way? If you've discovered the secret of being at two places at once I'd love to hear it.
It's a busy Tuesday but, no, it's not the worst.
