Meet the Teacher

Thursday we met Jakob's 2nd grade teacher, Ms. Linn. It was a very different experience this year. Yeah!! She greeted us right when we walked in the door and said, "You must be Jakob." Jakob was all smiles. His best friend from 1st grade is in his class and he was waiting for him in the classroom. Ms. Linn talked to Jakob about his summer and about her life growing up in the Air Force. It was wonderful. Jakob and I went to the art room to see Mrs. Z and she was so happy to see us. We even went into Ms. Pavia's classroom to say hello and she saw Jakob and said, "Oh Jakob, it is so nice to see you, how was your summer?" She even gave him a hug. Now, Jakob took it all in stride and hugged her and told her about his summer. I, on the other hand, had to consciously not ask the women who she was and what had she done with that emotionless and uncaring teacher we had last year. WOW! It is going to be a great year!!!
