first day jitters

As you may or may not know last year was a rough one in Mrs. Taylor's 2nd grade for a number of reasons. So needless to say I was anxious to begin this year; worrying that it would be a repeat of last year. I am happy to say that not only is this year shaping up to be different but I am actually happy to be a teache again! I had to stop for a moment as I was reading on my second day with my new class because I was completely overcome with gratitude to these little 7 and 8 year olds for the peopel they are. I sounds corny I know but it's the truth!

On another note, Noah started school again on Monday and is LOVING it. He has been having super days and his teacher and SLP are so impressed with his language growth that we are bumping up his IEP review as he is ready for new goals. Now, Jon and I (and anyone else who's been around him much) have seen him growing in leaps and bounds so we weren't as surprised as the school staff. I did get to have a small smug told ya so moment as I was reading what they had to say. WAY TO GO BUDDY! Keep learning and growing - Mommy & Daddy are so proud of you!!
