Thankful Thursday #8

Yes, it is Sunday. I am a bit behind. It's been quite a week! But I have many things to be grateful for this week, here are some of them:

1. Parent teacher conferences are OVER! And I survived! Even though it made for a really long week, the fact that we don't have any more this year makes it all worth it!
2. More comments on my vent post than I think I have ever gotten. Thank you all, you brought many smiles to my face!
3. My wonderful sister Lacey and friend Katie who went to ice cream with me late one night after conferences and distracted me from things that I worry about too much. We have found a frozen yogurt place in town that I am in love with, it is quite heavenly!

This shirt says it all, truly:

We decided to take a picture of our feet instead of our faces since we weren't feeling super beautiful.

In the end we did take a face picture. I really do love these ladies!

4. These BEAUTIFUL flowers given to me by a darling student. It was her last day on Friday. I may have cried a little. I hate goodbyes, I get very attached. Yes, they are in a coke glass. I don't actually own a vase (I have never needed one, I don't really get flowers!) They have done great in the glass, three more lillies have opened over the weekend.

Most of all, I am thankful for many, many people who made a difficult week easier to deal with! Happy Sunday!
