School Days! School Days!
I feel I must get something off my chest. Today something happened that I am not sure I can handle without the support of all of you. My kids went back to school today. :0 What to do with my self? (te he he!) With all of them gone most of the day and me here at home to listen to the quiet of this house. What a wonderful noise!!!! OK. I was not here the whole time. I volunteer at the school in the morning. I get to play with Pre-schoolers from about 8 until 10 and then I get to go to the library until noon. I get to wear my beaded glasses necklace. You know the ones that you see librarians wear to hold their glasses while they are not on their faces. I bought a pair when I was in Colorado. They are nice ones. Very excited about that! I checked books out to some one today and gave about 6 other new kids their library cards. I am helping open the world of books to kids. Maybe one of them will find a book in this library that will inspire them to go to college and get an amazing education in something that will one day solve one of the worlds most horrible problems. Like curing cancer or the common cold or ending world hunger or fingering out how to not get the hangers at the stores all hooked on everything around it. And all of that could happen because one lady who now has all this time to volunteer her time and loveliness to the wonderful children of the world so that they feel like they can walk proudly into a library and ask for a library card that will open the world to them and open their little minds until they fix this world. Yes, I am a very humble person and I feel that if it was not for me, these children just might be lost and confused. No, Eric being the Superintend is not going to have the effect on them as me being in the library or Pre-School room but it just might help. I mean if it was not for Eric getting this job, I would not have been brought here to help these children. Just like my job at the gym, right? Well for now we will just have to wait it out and see just how my being here makes their lives SSOOOO much better. I will let you all know as this year progress and the lives of the lucky children that have the bright light of my Angieness to shine on them. Aren't you just excited and a little jealous of these children? I know I am.
