What a day...

Well, I have written, packed and shipped all of my National Board stuff! If I ever write another paper again as long as I live I will die. I made it to the post office with 37 minutes to spare. Talk about a procrastinator! But I made it in time to get the postmark date of today.

And, I had a really good excuse for being so late getting to the post office! My best friend had her baby today! I'd already taken the day off of work to plan to be there, so after only 3 short hours of sleep last night, I was back up and at the hospital bright and early this morning. William Henry was born at 1:57, which was very convenient for me because I'd said that if he wasn't here by 3:00, I was going to have to leave to get to the post office! But he got here in time. I updated Alle's blog throughout the entire day, so go check it out to see all the pictures of the happy family!!! I truly feel privileged to have been able to be there with the rest of Alle and Beau's family when Henry was born. And I got to spend a lot of time with Alle throughout the day which was great. Go look at him! He's adorable!

I'm going to bed. Because I have to get up in the morning and go back to school! Now that all my National Board stuff is over, I promise to get updated on my blog. If anyone still reads this anymore, that is!

Congratulations on being done with your National Boards! I remember when my favorite teach in high school did that and I remember how stressed out she was.
