Work is going well. Students report on friday and so far everyone seems really nice. so far so good. today some students came in to help the teachers put their classroom together and move all the books into the appropriate rooms. i had a few girls helping me who were awesome. As i was organizing stuff I was listening to two of them talk about their summer and their boyfriends and their summer work projects. One of the girls was talking about how she was mad at her boyfriend about him going out with his friends and leaving her "home alone" or whatever it was. It made me think about how lucky I am and how happy I am that I have such an amazing relationship with my husband and how we have matured from that high school immaturity of having "ask permission" or "give permission" for someone to go out. E came home today and told me he was going out with the "boys" on friday and my immediate was response was "thjats cool, what're you gonna do?" and he told me.....but whats really nice is that I didnt care that he's going out without me nor do I care where or with whom he's going. trust is an amazing thing and was definately something that came with age for sure. and i do the same thing, neither one of us has to worry about what the other will say or if the other will be mad. we definately dont do much together anymore with the baby but thats ok. we enjoy our family time together and do get out occassionally alone. i even remember when i was pregnant not caring that he went out, he definately hung out with me and did his "husbandly duties" by bringin me take out or ice cream or whatever but i have never felt he had to always be there. of course i sometimes wish i could go too but thats normal. So back to the girls in my class....they were talking about this one girl's boyfriend and as soon as they started talking about it they were on to something else...amazing how quickly their train of thought changes...
