In Andrew's bedroom - Mike has gone to sleep (if that's possible right now) and ML has her high school classmates out in the den for a post-homecoming reunion. Andrew has gone to Greenville to leave for Ft. Myers, FL for the weekend with the quartet. I'd like to go on to bed but am not quite ready yet - it's early, and since I taught all those kids probably ought to go back out there for a little bit in awhile.
The first two days of this week were nice and quiet. Then - we had spirit days. "Nerd Day" on Wednesday, "group day" on Thursday (pick anyone, any size group, and dress alike according to a theme of your choice) and school spirit day today. Just try to teach on a Friday afternoon, of the first week back in school after Christmas, after three days of spirit week, with homecoming that night, and the distinct possibility of snow days the first of the week. Absolutely crazy.
For homecoming tonight I had a different role - as the senior class sponsor, I helped with crowning the queen. I actually was only supposed to put the small crowns on the runners-up, but it's a good thing that a second person was up there - Pastor Bartlett couldn't get the crown off the pillow right away as the ribbon was a little stuck. It was interesting being behind the spotlight - that was a new thing to experience.
I really hope Andrew has a good weekend in Ft. Myers.

This will be our first year at a school that has a homecoming. I have no idea how they handle it here, but I imagine it is less complicated for guys.
Did you all play Westgate tonight? Seems like we were there for homecoming a few years in a row.
Westgate didn't have a homecoming? I didn't realize that. It's a really nice night and a good time to see graduates again.
We didn't play Westgate this year - they asked if we'd pick another team. Guess they got tired of always having to wait through our long ceremony!
