It's been a long time. A lot has gone on and there have been a lot of changes, both good and bad. My mom passed away after a long illness, and my brother-in-law passed away after a very short illness. So 2012-2013 was a very difficult school year for me, then 2013-2014 became another year of change as I switched from first grade to fifth. No one could believe I made such a sudden/huge jump, but I said I needed a challenge...and boy, did I get one.
I've learned a lot in the past couple of school years, none of it has been easy, but then life never is. And as we learn, we grow. Right?
So backtrack a couple of years with me, won't you? Indulge me as I reminisce about my first graders and just some of the fun we had...
