Well today
was the beginning of a new crazier life. My teaching certificate will expire if I don't do a few things to gain 200 professional development points.

Wow Jenn! Good for you. Good luck :) Let us know how it goes!
Sounds like fun!! I know how fast that info leaves you, can't wait until Austin comes home from high school and needs help!!!! Ha Ha I know who I will call! See ya Sis
You'll get used to it...and they will have fun. A few hours is good for you :).
I bet you will end up loving it. It does leave, but I'm sure it will come back quick. Good luck
what a super fun opportunity! It is so great you get to play with your math and your amazing brain again!
It will be nice for you to get out of the house and talk to adult people (that is what I miss the most), but also very hard to leave those two darling boys. Good Luck. And don't worry, I am sure that all that knowledge isn't gone!!
