Well we made it through conferences. We had a full load and went an hour over time but we made it. One parent referred to it as being at the doctor’s office because of the wait. Let’s face it, fifteen minutes is not enough when talking about the current progress of your student, why they are acting like hormonal, raging, creatures, and trying to get the parent to stop crying. It is always interesting to me that Spring conferences ALWAYS have at least two or three parents who just sit and cry because they have no idea who their child has become. I always try to remember that each and every kid I teach is somebody’s baby and if they are not, then they should be and I might be the only person who says a kind word to them that day. Some days it’s a mantra I have to repeat over and over but I still have to remember. So….I am here, barely awake but doing the best I can.
