This had double meaning, spinning because I am spinning under a hectic schedule and spinning because of my kids doing soccer. After 3 weeks of my kids missing their soccer games and practices I have felt sufficiently guilty enough to make myself leave school at a decent time to take them to the activities I paid for and they chose to do. BUT, what in the world was I thinking signing up THREE kids for soccer who have games/practices every week at the same times but different places....I am SO NOT a super soccer mom!!!!! I am happy to report we all made it through the week. And my kids are happy, so I am happy! Zack was REALLY nervous to go on the field, he just wouldn't play and I was getting frustrated. Finally Sydney went out and ran with him up and down the field, encouraging him. It was adorable! She had her hand on his back and when he felt comfortable, after a few minutes, she left the field and he had so much fun! He keeps asking everyday if it's time for soccer again.
As for my spinning schedule it will be better on Monday because I have 2 more awesome para-educators starting! Hallelujah!!! Now we can start taking our lunch breaks, not to mention being more effective in the classroom! I am SOOOO relieved! There will be 5 adults and 12 children! Totally awesome! I think the spinning will start to slow down now...

I kept waiting for an update - I knew there would be a bunch at once - and you didn't disappoint! I'm so glad you're getting 2 more adults in your classroom and I'm so happy that you're still having fun family outings. You must be exhausted! I just can't believe how big your kids are. You are such a beautiful family!
I LOVE your picture on top. SO cute! Como se dice "christmas picture" in spanish?
Sally, I get tired just reading your blogs! When are you and Tom going to retire?
How is it, that I feel the same way with two less children?? I don't know how you do it all. Congrats on more helpers. Bens class has one teacher and 2 aides for four children, how have you been managing all this?? Crazy!
I think this will be me starting next month. I'm considereing adding basketball for my girls on top of piano and choir. I'm still deciding. They're likely to be so tall, I'd hate for them not to use their height!
You guys are always on the go doing fun things with your family. That is awesome. One of our favorite dinner places is Carrabas also. I also love Trifle (sp?). Good luck with school. You are awesome
3 kids in soccer! Whew! I can't believe everything you fit into one week.
You go girl!! I am sorry to say that I am glad my kids have opted to not do sports for a while!! It wears the parents out!! I hope we can get together soon!!
I start subbing next thursday and I will too be spinning! Yes, Eric is a cutie pie and the saddest thing about our fair day was some girl on the bus thought I was his mother. I am not joking. I was going to put it on my post but just couldn't do it. (big sigh)
