Rough Day

So, yesterday I had a rough day at school.  I'm not going to get into the details, but I will say that when I got home, I just wanted to crawl into my bed and ignore the world.  This year I have made a real effort to not let things at work get to me.  I have gotten through almost every day feeling good.  I haven't complained about the extra work that we have been give, my class schedule, my students.  I have felt pretty good all and all. 

So yesterday was upsetting.  Calah came in to snuggle me and ask what was wrong.  I told her some people said mean things to me and it made me sad.  So she wrote me this note:
In case you can't read it, it says:  To: Mommy, tomorow at school tell the people that said mean things to you tell them this:  You should be ashamed of your selves!  I think you should have a bad day!

It made me smile.  I appreciate that she is sensitive to the feelings of others.  And it helped me put things in perspective.  So it was a rough day, big deal.  Tomorrow is another day and I need to suck it up and go back to doing what I do best, regardless of what anyone has to say.
