I was very happy to be back at school yesterday. You could have convinced me that it was any day of the week. I had no idea. During math I thought it was Tuesday. We went to library after recess like we do every Wednesday and then came back and I did what we do every Thursday for reading.
I kept saying, "Wait. It's Wednesday isn't it?"
My students were mostly very well behaved while I was gone. They did their work and the classroom was pretty tidy.
They're such a dreamy class.
They wanted to hear all about why I was gone and how I was feeling.
My voice is 100% back. It was pretty amazing to be back at school and 1) not feel awful and 2) have a voice.
A random 2nd grader threw her arms around me in the hall.
A random 1st grader excitedly said, "Mrs. Davis!"
One of my former students was nearby and he said, "Yeah, I was in her class a few years ago." He is way too cool now, as a fifth grader, to show me too much enthusiasm, but he gave me a nod.
I texted a parent to ask about a student and she texted back!
It doesn't take much to make me really happy.

I have learned from sad experience that teenagers don't text back but I thought parents would to teachers! Crazy!
