...the Hispanic Parent Night! When the school year is winding down you would think that life would be winding down too. Thank goodness for my handy calendar, with out it I would miss important events, like the b-day party Em was suppose to go to, but we missed it by a day...why? well it wasn't on my calendar!
When you work for the school system, coach a sport, have kids play a sport, have a rising kindergartner, and volunteer, life is never winding down! Yeah, it's exhausting, but I know one day, I will have time to rest, right now, I'm living in the moment and loving every minute of it.
It all started last week when we (Mom's Huddle volunteers), helped the football program hand out Under Armour gear to the football team to get them ready to go for spring practice which started this past Monday. That was followed with two different parent meetings for football; I attended one as a mom and one as a volunteer to help welcome the rising freshman. Even though I didn't attend or help at the Buford Open, I had to organize these guys to help volunteer this morning, they didn't seem to mind too much.
Yesterday I registered Emma for Kindergarten, took a half day to spend most of it with her. I thought this will be fun, walked into BES, everything was well organized, I had all my paper work, I was feeling good. They took Em back to screen her and see were she is academically and all that good stuff they do. There was a moment when she was waiting in-between two sessions so I took a quick snap shot with my phone. As I watched her play as she waited it hit me like a ton of bricks. I was talking to Donna and then I had to excuse myself, went to the restroom and cried. Who knew? Not I, I was not expecting these emotions, where were they coming from, perhaps the realization that my baby will be in school, perhaps the realization that this will be the last time I will ever do this as "mom", perhaps the realization that I am getting older, either way I cried but it was all good!
Last night I ended a hectic two weeks with our end of season soccer banquet. Coach Manders always does a good job with our banquet, I enjoy sharing this time with our middle school program, JV and Varsity programs. Overall it was a great season and we are losing some senior girls that I will truly miss!
Tonight, Robert received an award from BHS at the Hispanic parent night. We hear it's an honor to be selected as teachers vote on a selected number of students in each grade level. I'm not sure if Rob understood anything that was said since it was mostly all in Spanish, however I told him just to listen for his name after all no matter what language you say it in it sounds the same J.
It's time to get some rest for next week, what am I talking about, I just need a good nights sleep to get ready for tomorrow!
