Back to School...........

As both a student and a teacher, September has always been an exciting month! I truly love Back-to-School time in all of its sharpened pencil, school-shopping, back on a schedule glory. However, this year is a bit of a struggle. After a wonderful year off with little Ms. Camdyn, this mommy is headed back to the classroom, and even though I will only be teaching part-time, it still meant finding care for beloved kiddo!
Seeing that today was our official "interview" with our new sitter, we took extra care in getting ready for the day and although the woman was wonderful, the environment and small number of children perfect, and Camdyn seemed entranced by an extensive array of musical instruments...the entire experience was traumatic, to say the least, for this work/child torn momma. I know if is only 24 hours per week, and I promised myself I would not be one of those "clingy" mothers....but seriously, the first day of kindergarten, senior year and college-graduation are flashing before me eyes!
