Today was the best!!

I got the best surprise today- A call from my students at Washburn Elementary!!!!  My rockstar Kinderprep partner in crime (Barb!!) called me over her lunchbreak between schools and I was able to talk to the kiddos as they were getting off the bus.  To hear those little voices yell "Hi Teacher April" brought tears to my eyes!!  I have missed those little munchkins every day of my bed rest and yet hearing their voices made me feel like I was right there at the bus stop with them :)  Barb then let each of them say a personal "hello" into the phone and Dahabo even said "I miss you so Teacher April."  Awe :)

I am still hoping/ praying that I will be able to get off of complete bed rest during the time that the kids are still at school- even if just for an hour- to be able to visit the classroom and say a proper goodbye to each of them.  The last time I saw them was just a normal day in the classroom, and when they left that afternoon, none of us could have guessed that my "Teacher April" days would be over :(  It might take some serious begging on my part, but my grandpa always told me that I could be persuasive when I needed to be.... So I'll give it a few more weeks and let the bribery begin in my doctor's office!

Other than that.... Mom fixed us french toast for dinner tonight (I love "breakfast meals" for dinner!), and I had my Tuesday night reality tv fix.  The Biggest Loser went as expected, though it would have been sad to see anyone go.... Dancing with the Stars was a big disappointment as I liked Chuck.... And although I love Kris Allen from Idol, I hated that Jamie Foxx was the surprise mentor (not a fan of him at all!).  I'm actually excited to have a kid and a life at this time next year so that I DON'T know what is going on in EVERY tv show in America.

Doctor appointment tomorrow.... Woo hoo!
