Leap Day

I thought when I woke up today that today is like an extra day. One you wouldn't normally have. One that should be special in some way. I wondered what I would do with a special day. I thought that maybe we should take the day off and spend it as a family doing something special. I thought that would be really fun to make it a tradition (if we can remember in 4 years that it IS a tradition) and do something special. As I said good bye to the kids, put my shoes on and grabbed my coffee, I thought that today should be filled with special things. Maybe I should make something. Maybe I should celebrate the day doing something fun in the classroom with my students. Maybe we could do something as a school. I arrived at school a few minutes late and I mentioned to another teacher that today should be fun and special and we should do something neat today. She agreed with me and I went into my classroom and prepared for the day. (logged into my computer and checked my email...)The kids came and went 3 times before lunch and then came and went another 3 times. The last group I just watched the clock as I taught. I couldn't wait to leave. After they left, I grabbed my lunch bag, coat and keys and out the door I went. Grocery store and then home to fix dinner and take a shower. Now I sit here and I have not done anything special with my extra day. I think I need a do over...
