After 5 sessions...

It's the 4 day weekend after our 2nd double header and I am pooped.
The road from training, where I thought I wasn't gonna remember anything, to our first session -- it has been quite a journey! I thought I was gonna mess up saying something to a student or a parent from all we've been trained to do. But I've had 4 small groups and was on errands for the first time this last session. I have had much more ease talking to my students than what I thought and I have had so much fun with my small groups. I felt like a pro now and it happened even after my first check in name...

After my first small group, I got a little teary eyed when I said goodbye to them on day two. I was thinking that I was sending them into the world after their first experience as a Gator. This was special to me. I need to not loose this feeling for the next 17 sessions.
Here we go into the flow of things, I plan on resting a lot this weekend, fitting in some fun, but also being productive with my time because the time we have to ourselves is very limited. I can't wait to keep the magic going! YESSS!
☮ and PLUV!
