Baby!

I was completely on my own for the first time today.  (Another first day!)  The teacher whose place I'm taking was planning to work another two weeks before giving birth.  This morning she texted me and said she didn't feel well.  During the day I heard she went to the hospital and tonight I heard she has a new baby boy!  Things don't always go as planned...  Fortunately, I did all of the procedures (collecting lunch money, taking attendance, etc.) yesterday on my own so I was able to manage today.  She had been coordinating the Language Arts lessons so I'm now responsible for those, too.
