Monday and I am back at work! I had a hard time falling asleep and Cody did too. I think he was anxious for me and he was def excited. I left him this morning after I woke him for his pills and he said "goodbye, my little teacher". So sweet!! Everything went off without a hitch but we did get his feeding tube clogged for a few. No sweat, we unclogged. I have had a song for Casey and I finally found one for Cody. It is "When You Believe" by Mariah Carey. This is what I listened to on the way to work and of course, I lost it. They were happy tears and I just pray that it stays this way. Everyone at work was great and welcomed me with lots of hugs. My principal made a special announcement and I saw a lot of the older kids I taught. It was weird because a big group of them are in 5th grade, some I had in kindergarten and some in 2nd grade. One boy said he was was so glad I was back and that brought me to tears at the end of the day. The class is cute, the sub did a GREAT job and looks like I will have a lot of extra goodies and ideas from her too. It will be really fun working with my friend Mary Picarello and my other friend Corinne Short that has been in 2nd grade for a while now. Should be a good year.

Cody did well. He had 2 tutors today and did not really get to be alone. Tomorrow he goes to Sloan with his dad for the first time. Should be interesting.

I am pooped and am trying to get things done so I can go to bed soon...nite all.
