I should have known when I was awoken at 2:30 this morning by a screaming child who was seriously not pleased about having fallen out of bed. Then it continued once I got to school and checked my email. I won't go into details, but let me just say that in the past 2 days of school I haven't been able to use my plan period to actually prepare for class. Instead I've used it dealing with difficult student situations. Then, it's 4th hour. My speech II class is on its way to the library to do research for their upcoming debates. Well, 2 gentlemen (and I use the term loosely) from my class had a slight misunderstanding (very much an understatement). Now one of them will not be returning to class for many days.
Fast forward to the end of the day. I'm finally home, and our babysitter (who is awesome, by the way) drops the kids off at our house (she'd had to take them on an outing with her this afternoon, so she just dropped them off at our house) and lets us know that her family will definitely be relocating within the next few months (hopefully for them). Now, we knew this was a distinct possibility, but I had been hoping and praying for the past few weeks that something would happen so they wouldn't have to move away. Now next year, my baby boy will be going to preschool all day every day and his baby sister will be staying with someone else. I can't stand the thought of separating them! I know it has to happen sometime, but I'm just not ready yet.
So, basically I've been in a funk all day. I can't get out of my bad mood. All I can do is dwell on all the crappy events of the day.
Since it was at least a pretty day (2 in a row--this has to be some sort of record), we went outside and got some serious trike time in. Somehow time with the kiddos outside can make you forget about all your problems. Here are some pictures from today's therapy session:

Take comfort in knowing our kiddos might be together? Esp our four-yr olds, could possibly be preschooling it together. Too bad freaking building blocks was reserved for admin.
It'll all work out. And if you need me before the school year ends, I'm here for you & my kids would love nothin' better than for Connor & 'Wiley' to spend some days with us.
