I finished up my first year "back to work."  I loved working with those little preschoolers.  They made me laugh.  It was hard adjusting to not being home all the time.  When I was home, I wasn't home.  I was running errands and volunteering at the kids school....A LOT.  I really enjoy being at their school and think it is important to be there.  It allows me to have a closer relationship with the staff at the school and it is always fun to see the kids faces light up when they see me. 

I was the room parent for Aaron's class this year.  Hannah was disappointed that I wasn't her room parent, but I still helped with her class as needed and volunteered in the Media Center.  Shelving books is VERY THERAPEUTIC!!  Parents sign up to be a room parent at the beginning of the year.  Hannah's class already had a volunteer and Aaron's class needed one.  I really didn't want to lead both, so I went with Aaron's.  I know since this is his last year of elementary school, he won't be as excited to have Mom hanging out at his school next year.

Anyway, I guess I did an o.k. job at the preschool as I have officially accepted a new position next year.  The preschool is starting a Transitional Kindergarten class and I will be the lead teacher.
