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.
