The first week of school is always a whirlwind of busy halls and energetic students; exciting competing with anxiety to determine who will rule the day. At my school, the faculty are nearly as excited and that makes for happy and hopeful hallways. A new school year always feels fresh and full of promise and in this way, I always welcome its arrival. I am ready for something new.
Right on schedule, Mother Nature brought signs of Fall change. On Monday, I sat on the back deck and when I looked up at the sky, I saw that old man tree has already begun to change his leaf colors.
Seasonal change is always pretty in my corner of New Jersey and this year is no exception. Changing colors will help me to embrace the transition to school (and the need to wear shoes!). Classes started on Tuesday; last night was Back to School Night, and today is Friday. Sweet, blissful Friday. That the weekend will be followed by more school is good news. We’re back and that’s happy!
