Observations: Parents are just as difficult to bring to attention as children, and they do not respond to the hand clap or the "hocus pocus" like the kids do!
Overheard: At back to school night I heard several of my parents say, "I love this classroom, wish I could come to school!" This made me smile.
Gratitude: So grateful today for an "easy" back to school night. The parents seemed open, engaged and genuinely pleased with the classroom, work presented and general atmosphere of the class.
Favorite Moment: Probably when I felt accepted and validated at my back to school night or, perhaps when I finally got into bed! Either way, I was smiling.
