My 2nd "first day of school"

Man it's nice having at least one year of teaching experience. I wasn't stressed or nervous really at all for today. Everything did not work out how I thought it would, but I just shrugged it off knowing that would happen. My kids have an overall lower average than last year, but they are a bunch of sweethearts...so far. I remember it took a few weeks for the true personalities to come out last year so I'm keeping that in mind. By the way, it's pretty awesome to hear that students actually wanted to have you for a teacher and were really excited when they got you. I've never heard that before considering they really had no idea who I was last year. I have a little sister of one of my kiddos from last year. The mom came in whooping "YES!" during open house because she was excited to have me again! How awesome is that?!
