First - talked with another friend who had lost her husband seven years ago to cancer, as to how to "act" and what to do with my newly widowed friend. A very heartful, endearing conversation.
Second - Arrived back in my room to find this little surprise (see picture) on my desk - how perfectly pretty and delicious - from one of the aide's who helps in my room.
Third - MAP testing is OVER! It was a somewhat normal day and the kids were SO wonderfully perfect all day.
Fourth - Had another deep conversation with another friend/teacher about love, caring, etc.
Fifth - Did I mention the kids were wonderful today?
Sixth - We helped out another teacher (my class counted push ups for first grade :)
Seventh - Another friend/teacher asked for some support and help in a delicate situation. I felt honored that she trusted me so much.
Eigthth - We had a "party" to end MAP testing - popcorn and social studies videos about pioneer life (the kids sure are glad they live in THIS time!)
Ninth - everyone wished everyone a Happy Easter/Passover and left thinking about food, Easter bunnies, and more great food.
I just felt really loved today. Very surprising and unusual for me on a Good Friday. I usually have pretty rotten ones.
