Yesterday was my first day back. It was so bitter, windy cold walking around all over that campus. It made me think of my Ricks College days. It was so cold then. I don't think I have ever been that cold.
My classes this semester are: Math 1010 (my advisor says I can't wait any longer to take this!!!), Art for Elementary school teachers (really cool class-we actually meet in the art studio-it's all hands on-And photograph them-LOVE IT!), Effective Instruction for children ages birth-five, Survey of the exceptional child (how to teach children with special needs or gifted), Evaluations strategies and multicultural education (how to asses and evaluate children-I think), and Geography! It should be an interesting semester! It was much more fun to go back than it was in the fall. I felt more relaxed and recognized more people!!! I already have so much homework-it's not even funny! I guess it's better to hit the ground running! Thank goodness for Blake (my built in math tutor-he just needs a lesson on patience for teaching his mom!)
Oh and I had to leave really early -normally I can take the kids to school and make it to my classes by 8 but couldn't yesterday....Steve tells the kids-I don't have any super powers like your mom-so you guys HAVE GOT TO GET UP AND HELP ME! When I picked up the kids after school they ever so happy to see me. It was nice. Blake said, " I think Dad was a little stressed this morning! It took all of us and we still didn't get done what you do in the mornings!" I was totally impressed when I got home though. They had made my bed and started the laundry!!!!

You go girl! :)
I have to tell you....I had to sub in a K class yesterday all day and I am SO GLAD I am not a teacher. Thank goodness there are wonderful people like you who are willing to do that job!
So when did you start back? John should finish his degree this fall and then there is talk of me going back. I started in Aerospace Engineering but not interested any more. I can't see e with a pilots license. I substitute also and that is NOT something I want to do regularly so I will probably go into accounting. I'm terrified about going back though. How did you do it?
I think that is so great that Steve and the kids recognized what an amazing job you do at home. I had Geography at MTSU and I loved it. Who knew? I am also taking the ART/ Evaluation class/ and the Special Ed class that you have this semester. I wish you could do the 2+2 program at Tech, I just have to drive to Motlow and I have one professor for 4 classes! Right now we meet 3 days a week, but she is thinking of making it two days. She makes sure we are out by 2 o'clock every day so we can get our kids. It's great. Sorry, I didn't mean to brag, but I know what it's like to walk all over campus and I am forever grateful for this program!
