It's almost Friday!

Well girls of the road, it's almost Friday and that will bring a break from business for at least a minute. I have realized that I'm very thankful for the continuing contact schools I have because I've realized that first year schools can be so "needy." I keep trying to remember what it was like for me to go through those first years, but it is hard because it was so long ago. The other question I am fielding is "So how many schools actually keep this after three years?" I know that my situation may be different because I was blessed by working in a building that kept comprehesive literacy at the forefront of everything they did. So my view of that question is quite jaded.

For the most I do know that their questions are just one more attempt not to change. I try to understand and be sympathetic, but there are moments when I want to just say....DO IT!
(Sorry that my post was messed up....)

Okay, don't leave us hanging. . . because what?
This week has been a long one for me. I've been in St. Louis in schools 4 out of 5 days and still 3 more to go next week before I get to stay home for a few days. Training in the office will be a nice break. See you there.
