The school year is basically over. All that is left is for me to go back on Monday, pack up and lock up some loose things. I am waiting until Monday because tomorrow our eldest daughter graduates from high school and I want to focus on the family.
This year I learned a little on the admin side. Yes, I mean a little. I felt like a babysitter most of the time. I resigned my administrative duties in order to go back to being able to focus on my teaching. That is what I am really there for.
There is a lot of change on the horizon. A very good friend of ours is retiring and moving out of state. She has found love on the internet and is retiring from her teaching position in order to mover a very small town to be with him.
Our eldest daughter is graduating and will be heading off to college in August. She has chosen to join the Texas A&M Corps of Cadets in order to play in the band there. This is a very big step and will require discipline from her that she cannot even imagine at this point.
Our youngest daughter is going to be going to junior high in the fall. She is growing so fast. I have noticed a definite maturity emerging from her this past few months.
On a sad note our hair dresser, of 8 years, has suddenly passed. Lynne knew about our family and NEVER had a problem with it. She was more than a hair dresser, she was extended family. It was a blow to learn she passed and we missed the funeral. She was the only one to cut our families' hair during the past 8 years. We will miss you Lynne.
My mother-in-law is landing at the airport as I type this. K, L, and N are picking her up. I don't mind her visits, but its always difficult to watch K have to deal with her mom.
