I’m just about finished completing the general lesson plans for my substitute who will be filling in for me for the month of March.  I’m almost reluctant to go home.  Next week is Spring Break and then I’m officially on maternity leave for the month of March.  Going home means that I most likely won’t be coming back to school until after the baby is born!  This thought gives me the chills.  The kids were very excited about the fact that the next time they see me, I will have a baby.  They shrieked with joy when my principal made that announcement after worship this morning.  *sigh*  It’s very hard to imagine that I’m going to be a mother.  I mean, I’m going to be someone’s mom.  Israel is going to be someone’s dad…very soon!  It’s a crazy feeling and it’s becoming more and more real.  Well, I’d better head home.  I can’t stay here much longer.  I need to prepare for the Sabbath and get my house in order.  Have a happy Sabbath everyone…
