Ribbon cutting ceremony today at school. A re-beginning of sorts, two years after the school first opened. We had department and team meetings this morning, then worked in my classroom for a few hours before the ceremony started. Afterward, it was difficult to keep on task in the room because many families were walking through the halls, meeting teachers and looking at the new buildings. But I did manage to get some more done. I'll have to come back tomorrow and really put in a few hard hours to get caught up to where I should be, but I know it will be doable.
I didn't cry today, which was the first tearless day this week. It is really interesting; over the past 3 days as my pain has been sharp, I've had several friends and family members go through really difficult circumstances in their own personal lives. While I wouldn't wish that on any of them, it has been cool to watch God use it to help me focus on others not just on myself. I pray that as this new chapter in my life opens I will continue to stay tender to the Spirit's prompting. Back to square one. I'm re-beginning. And it is good.
