Why today was a happy day:
1. It was not Monday. We did not have school yesterday (Fall break), so we started the week with a Tuesday! Most of the kids came to school looking more rested and happy than they usually do on a Tuesday.
2. My intermediate orchestra is tons of fun! There are already some nicknames that have developed, and the kids are just having a blast playing together! We got to the end, I said, “Time to pack up!” and a couple of the kids said, “Awww! I wanna keep going!”
3. It was sunny today, and after orchestra I hiked into the woods and read a few chapters of Out of the Silent Planet by C.S. Lewis. Yay for both hiking and reading a good book!
