Hello

Call me naive, but It's a strange feeling when someone mentions offhandedly that they've read my blogs. I mean, obviously when I hit the "publish post" button, I do so with the intent of putting my words out their for others to read. But still, when there is no feedback, no comments from the peanut gallery, it's easy to forget that an audience exists on the other side of my monitor. I even feel a bit shy... *awkward half-wave*

So... finally got to the substitute training session - yippee! three hours of completely obvious information. Although I wish they wouldn't have taken me on this many-moon journey, I'm just glad that I'm finally able to also sub at the local public middle and high schools.

I mailed Mom some of the hiragana that I'd written. She called me last night to let me know how surprised and thrilled she was. I just love doing little things for her because they always mean so much; she's always appreciative. I still wish I could do more for her though. She is my mommy, after all, and I wuv her. I spelled out Mom's and my full names in hiragana and then wrote the romanji (English) equivilant next to it. Of course, our names come out sounded strange and entirely foreign, but then that's the fun of it, Japanese-ing our names. :)

*yawn* All the baking today made me sleeping... time for reading in bed snuggled up next to my adorable husband!
