Theme of the day: tired.

Remember a few entries ago when I talked about investing in stock for Tylenol? It has started. I am so tired that I have a pounding headache. I know that I just suck it up because I am not the first teacher to go back to work after having a baby. And I am probably not the first new mother that has had to get up between 4 and 5 am to feed baby, or feed the baby at 3 am, then get up at 5, and get ready to make it to work on time, but it sure feels like it right now.
The above picture was taken a few weeks ago and I love it because it's funny but it has also become his common face. Honestly, I am tired and when he gets like that for an hour, I don't know what to do for him. My synapses aren't firing enough to figure it out, so I just sit and sing to him and eventually he falls asleep. My husband and I figure that he is just so overly tired. I wish that I could just pitch a fit and someone would rock and sing me to sleep and then let it go because "I am just so overly tired." Lukin has it made and he doesn't even know it.
Lastly, school hasn't even started yet, so I don't know any kids, and I have a meeting tomorrow with a parent. Are you even kidding me? What am I supposed to say about the kid? I'll just sit and nod along like I know the kid, and try to soak up as much as my tired little brain can handle.
