I'm Back!

Dear Sweet Parents,


Thank you so much for your prayers and words of encouragement while I was home sick on Monday and Tuesday. I went to the doctor Friday after school and found out that I had walking pneumonia. I don't know why they named it that because from Friday evening until Tuesday I did very little walking! I was so pleased that Mrs. Lowery was able to step in for me. She is an experienced kindergarten teacher who loves our children. They didn't miss a beat without me, but I missed them terribly! The students made me get well cards and sent them home through my son Joe. It made my day. Thank you again for your prayers and sharing your sweet children. They are great blessings!


We have a lot to look forward to in the next couple of weeks. Remember to go to the blog to see the important dates. This week we will have class pictures on Wednesday, Report Cards will go home Thursday, and Eric Litwin (author of Pete the Cat books) will visit on Friday! The following week we will go to Lanark on Thursday the 22nd. Then Science Fest will be the the 23rd. Please remember that we will dismiss at 11:30 on the 23rd and be off for Spring Break! Can you believe it?


I hope many of you will participate in this weekend's "Run the Race!"
