PTO

i just want to remember today, so i thought i would quickly write it all down:
-i woke up at 6:30 showered and ready for the day
-woke kaden, koy and brooke up at 7, kelsi gets ready on her own now-got the other three ready for school and on the bus by 7:25
-kissed my hot hubby goodbye for a week
-arrived at the school a little before 8 and separated read.a.thon envelopes and treats
-at 9 handed out read.a.thon envelopes to the second grade classes
-at 9:45 went to the bank and made the book fair deposit
-went back to the school for my work shift from 10:30-1:30
-picked koy up from the babysitters at 2
-went visiting teaching at 2:30 and 3:30
- at 4:15 went back to the school and signed up all the teachers for their games for the halloween carnival
-from 5-7 helped with parent/teacher conference dinner
-finished up working at our book fair until 8:30
-made our bank deposit for the day and left the school at 9:15
-almost make it home and get a call from kelsi to pick her up from the football game
-arrive home a little before 10...wheew, what a day!

that was the crazy schedule but that's not really what i wanted to remember. i want to remember all the great people i get to come in contact with daily. i really have loved the PTO, the committees and people i get to work with are amazing. they are so ready to help---kids in tow---and all so dependable! i have just been simply amazed how generous people are with their time and talents. we had our grandparent day for the book fair, a first for our school, and the support we got was unbelievable...we had about 120 grandparents there to eat lunch with their grandchildren. i was just so happy in the wash room today- seeing how happy all the kids were to have their special people there with them. the energy at our elementary school is so awesome! we have an amazing community and i am so so blessed to live here and i just love it. i love working with the teachers and our wonderful principal in our school also, i was dreading going around for our carnival game signup and it wasn't that bad---out of 25 teachers only 2 complaints, i can handle that! i have been amazed how much time all these teachers put in too, anytime i have been at the school late, teachers have been their later. i really am just so grateful to be able to live here...i love it!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jaci - and you think your father is crazy for running marathons. Hmmmm i think i have it easy. It is so nice to hear the good about all you are involved in - little miss Pollyanna. Now when it is -40 degrees out just remember the warmth of the day you just enjoyed.
