the start of a new school year

Trying to think of something to write about here, I ask myself 'what have I done in these first weeks of school?' It is all sort of a blur. Working out a new schedule, responding to questions and requests from teachers, staff and helpers, trying not to miss any of the meetings I am supposed to go to, and putting away the mountain of stuff that appeared over the summer has taken most of the time. I can't wait to get into a groove where I actually have time to reflect on my interactions with children. Hopefully that will begin to happen soon, cause that's what I like best.
