I've had these words on my mind for the past few days and I hope that I can express them as deeply as I feel them. When the news came that school would be suspended for the rest of this year, my heart sank, my gut felt sick and my eyes welled with tears. I felt such disappointment; not so much for my kindergartner or my 2nd grader, but for anyone who is in a transition year right now. To the 5th graders, 8th graders and High School Seniors, my heart aches for you. There were experiences you were waiting for, things you were so much anticipating and now those things will not be happening and for that I am so sorry. I wanted you to have them! I wanted them to be part of your story. 20 years from now I wanted you to look back and smile because you remember how fantastic these days were. But here's the thing..I don't want you to get stuck here. Getting stuck in disappointment will rob you of so much more than this loss every will....
