Tomorrow is the first day of school for us and to be quite honest, I'm feeling a lot like I did my first day of high school - excited but also very nervous! Tomorrow marks the beginning of my first day as a special education director and I've already realized it's going to be quite a learning experience for me! It should be quite interesting being pregnant and embarking on this new challenge/adventure at the same time...but I'm looking forward to it.
