Crazy Day

When we're not dealing with WILD weather, we're dealing with other crazy things! Today our school was put on lockdown for close to 2 hours. When our principal came on the speaker and said "we're on lockdown" we knew it was for real. We quickly ushered students from out of the halls and away from the classroom doors. I had to go outside and lock our door and then went inside my classroom with another teacher and about 15 kids.

We were nervous for a while, but thankfully our local newspaper updated their website and we found out that there was a bank robber loose close to our campus. Once we knew that it wasn't a crazed student, we all felt relieved.

Things were a little tense today. You never know how you'll react in a situation like that and God definitely gave me a peace.
Thank you, Lord, for your protection over my school, my students and me. Amen!

PS: Landrie's Spring Program was tonight. I'll post video/pictures this weekend. Just a sneak preview though--she didn't have her finger in her nose!

Hey girl -- I heard about the lockdown on my way to get Tommy from the airport today. I said a little prayer for you and all the kiddos, and I'm so glad to hear that everything turned out ok! Can't wait to see pics of Landrie's program!

I have to comment on the "her finger wasn't in her nose" part of your post - being the mother of a nose obsessed child too, it made me laugh! It is amazing what constitutes a "good" public appearance!! LOL!
