You know how moms sometimes complain that they have 'Mom Brain'? Their thoughts are so scattered and they forget things all the time? Yeah, I'm pretty sure I have Christmas Brain.
I sat in the wrong row at chapel (although in my defense, everyone sat one row back since the bell tables were set up in front of the first row). Then I forgot to bring the money from the Guatemala bake sale over to church to stick in the treasurer's box. I'm sure I forgot other things too. It's a crazy time of year!
It's also a giving time of year... Today after school a church member stopped by and gave school $10,000 to spend, a few thousand of it is set aside to help with tuition. But the rest of can be spent on classroom stuff. Mr. E gave me a budget of $500! Woohoo! Gotta start my list.
Then, we got a card from St. Paul's from Fulda. Their parochial school closed this summer (the school I attended up to 8th grade). Their PTL sent our PTL a check for $900! It was touching, humbling, and slightly sad and happy at the same time. We will definitely put the money to good use!
