Field Day and Speeches and Friends
Today was a really fun day, we had "Field Day" at our school. During the afternoon we had inflatable games and activities, tricycles for the big kids to race, a dunk tank for Mr. C. and Mr. H. to be get wet in, a station for singers and dancers, and of course the usual playground equipment. It was the first Field Day that we've had like that since I've been at my school. It was colder than I would've liked, but since it had been postponed since they thought it was going to rain on Tuesday. (Which it didn't, I might add.) It was a lot of fun, and I took MANY pics. I actually participated in the Cha-Cha Slide Dancing and raced three of my students in the tricycle race. I lost, but it was FUN. It was a really fun afternoon.
After that we had our end-of-the-year Faculty Meeting where the people that are leaving are recognized. You guessed it, I was one of five who was called up to the front. What I didn't expect was that I was going to give a speech. I felt I did really well, and only at the end did I tear up. Once I teared up I said, "...So, thank you." Gigglygal patted me on the shoulder, and it was one of those "never forget" sort of moments. It was a good thing. I'm ready to move forward...I just have to get my stuff turned in before that happens...
Tonight I had WorshipGal and her three kids over, and we laughed A LOT! It was a great time. Honestly, I think leaving GigglyGal and her family is going to be one of the hardest parts of leaving here. God has REALLY connected our hearts on so many levels. But, the cool news is that she AND HER FAMILY LOVE IHOP-KC! :-) So, I know the friendship won't be ending by any stretch of the imagination! God is cool lke that!
I need to get to bed. Field trip tomorrow.
Life.
Is.
Good.
