The first day of school always brings mixed feelings. D had a really good day, and he said, "I was most excited to see all of my friends." When I asked him what he played for recess, I was slightly disappointed when he did not answer "Star Wars or Meerkats" but instead answered "Wall Ball." His creative ways are amazing to me and I hope they are never lost to more conventional games. There was one new child in his class today: a girl who had been with his class for part of a year a couple of years ago. The school is beautiful: the classrooms majestic. And D's teacher seems really creative and happy to teach.
The beginning of school has its own challenges for me as well. I want to know all of the new people all at once, and yet, I want things to stay the same. PTA changes are hard for me: especially because in our small school, we all get to know each other pretty well, and with the way I get attached to people, it is hard for me to make big changes. And then for me today it was facing people I wasn't sure I was ready to encounter, but all went well. I am striving to rely most of all on the Lord and to be sensitive to the promptings of the Holy Ghost so I will be in the right places at the right times. Let us all pray for one another.
Goodnignt, love, Katie
