Wow the list could go on. I just got back from the board meeting and they approved the superintendent's recommendation to give me unpaid leave. As i was driving home, it all became so real. I am looking forward to next year. I don't know what to expect, but i am definitely willing to give it a try. I might love it, i might not, but at this time i feel it is right for Gertie and for us. I am just so excited!!!

Congratulations!!!!!
You are a wonderful mother!!!
I scanned the list for a mention of pancake on a stick!
Ah, that mad me a little sad. I quit work after my first one was born and it was hard to start with. It's a whole different mindset. Give it time. You can always make nametags for your own kids!
Oops. Made me a little sad.
