In my very first post I was so excited about teaching in Odessa but nervous about all the newness. It's not much different this year. Even though this is my third year at the same school I find myself nervous and unsure of how it will all play out. I have a new co-worker to share a room and job with, a new counselor, a new diagnostician, a new spec. ed. supervisor and a new speech therapist. Also my mentor has taken a postion downtown... so she will not be there to whine to/seek advice from. She has so much wisdom I'm not done tapping from yet. :(

I'm not sure what all this change means for me. More responsiblities? maybe. I dunno yet. I feel in Limbo. But it's not just that. There is more uncertainty than just this.

Adam is graduating in December. I'm not sure what that means for our family yet, but it's sure to bring about more change.

My girls are growing every moment and I feel their childhood slipping away. I desperately want to cling on to all the memories but they are fading away to quickly. They get drowned out by all the mundane that must be done. I so hate that. I feel it makes me even less of a mother. I aspire not to be distracted, but I feel it is in vain.
