I have their names! How wonderful. It was a process. I knew that we would all get them eventually and I am supposed to accept that patiently but with their names...well I just wanted them so badly. So I asked the assistant principal who told me I could talk to Student Affairs who told me that the list wasn't finalized ( I said that was fine and I would take whatever they had), and that there was a problem with the printer (I said I would write them out by hand) and then that they needed to get IT (I sad that I would come back) and so on ... But in the end I got it! I probably did not make any friends with the people who work in Student Affairs and I likely used up all of my favours for theyear but….Ihave it! I could not be more excited.
Having their names makes it all very real.
They are real little people with names and personalities and favourite things and I can’t wait to meet them.
Who would think a list of names could make someone so happy. Only YOU Melissa! Glad to see you so excited and happy. Great picture!
