I finally had a chance to volunteer in Sarah's class today. It was really fun to get to meet all of her little friends. She is in love with a little boy named David. I get the feeling that he also loves her. Nearly every kid who came to my table (I was doing a math center) commented how Sarah & David are always together and they're such good friends. At home Sarah never stops talking about how she is going to marry David and how wonderful he is. I'm not totally sure how to handle the situation, actually! Anyway, I am signed up to come again in a month and I am really looking forward to it. I finally feel like things are settling down and we can get back to living our lives.
Also, I posted a message to the Woodlands area group asking about babysitters and got several leads on high schoolers in the area (some on our street, even)! We are leaning away from getting a helper now (I feel overwhelmed by the process, I think) but I was approached by someone else's helper this morning as I put our recycling out... she wanted to know if I was interested in a part-time, live-out helper as her friend was looking for more work. That, I think I coud possibly do. We'll see how it works out.
