My mom and step dad arrived last night to Pittsburgh. Since I live 3,000 miles from my family its monumental to see them and spend time with them. This time in particular since I haven't seen either of them for 10 months. Having them here means I have turned a bit into a giddy school girl (yes, it can happen) and also tour guide (less of the stretch of the imagination). Dinner at Kaya last night was delicious.
I dreamed about my students last night - I dont think I have never had a dream about my students before. I only seem them twice a week at their after school arts programming, but last night they appeared. It was a comforting dream of connecting. This term I have the benefit of teaching two of the students from my class last year. Watching them grow and develop has provided me with not only satisfaction but hope. More on that topic later.
Take a minute and listen to John Legend's song of his new ablum (not yet released) "It's Over" featuring Kanye West. This is perhaps my fav off the new ablum that I have heard. "Good Morning" is the old John which I of course love as well, but can't relate to in this minute.
Smokey Robinson on Saturday.
