Heidi's been understandably anxious about starting a new job at a new school, and I've done what I can to help. Her room is ready, custom posters made and printed, emails polished, and ideas bounced tirelessly around. We're even trading in the Honda for a Jeep since she has to drive herself to work and the commute is double her old one.
I wanted her to feel prepared, because today was the open house for students all over the county. All of her kids, along with their parents, showed up to meet her and see what plans she has in store for the year ahead. Fortunately, they reassured her in ways I could not. "It's going to be fine," she told me when she got home.
"I know it is!" I agreed. "You always feel better when you meet the kids."
