You may remember this post last year. Well I’m starting to feel those feelings again. Dread. Heartache. Pain. Tears. Worry. But then underneath all the hurt and sadness, there is this weird happy. Kennedy LOVES day care. She LOVES Mrs. Sherry. She LOVES her friends there. She is a very social little girl (where did she get that?) She loves being around her friends. I can’t wait for Mrs. Sherry to see all the cool things Kennedy has learned. And Mrs. Sherry has a way of making every Mommy feel like their baby is her favorite so I know Kennedy is her favorite. Kennedy is walking. Kennedy is playing. Kennedy is doing such cool stuff. She will have a blast… but then there is the part of me that thinks she isn’t going to be having a blast with me. I’m not going to be there to write down every new word she says. I’m not going to know all the funny or clumsy things she does during the day. At least I have Sherry’s note to look forward to.
I am excited about a new school year. I’m excited about 10 new students. I’m excited to teach something new. I’m excited to be a Kindergarten teacher! Whoa… 10 5 year old little boys with Autism… This year is going to be GREAT!
