Parker got his very first birthday present in the mail today! I put the box on the floor and he couldn't wait to rip it open. I had to cut it with scissors since it had been shipped to us. It was from his God-mother, "Auntie" Jen. She always wraps things in the most beautiful paper. He had fun playing with the tissue paper and we put one of the outfits on him, after he had a bath of course!
I have Curriculum Night tomorrow night, so I won't be able to post anything on the blog. My friend Sharon uses Thursdays as a day to share something she is thankful for so tonight I'd like to share some things I' m thankful for.
First, I'm thankful for my healthy boys. They are so happy that they make us happy. I'm also thankful for the children in my classroom. Each morning I pray that I will be a blessing in their lives. I have seen such positive change in my little ones since they came to me on the first day of school. I must say, that I really feel like I'm where I'm supposed to be and that I am making a difference in their lives. When they come into the classroom in the morning, many of them say, "Did you miss me last night?" I always respond with, "I missed you soooo much and I'm so glad that you came to school again today!" I don't know of any other job where you can get hugs all day and be told by 5 and 6 year olds that they love you!
Two more days until Parker turns 1!
Love,
Tracy
