It's been a time.
Has the time been a year? Longer? How far back do we go?
It's been a year.
One year ago, I left the community I had been a part of for 18 years - a school where my three children attended and grew. A community rich with friendship and experiences.
One year ago, my first child graduated high school and we prepared for him to go to college.
One year ago, I was caring for my dear friend who was dying of brain cancer. I was caretaking every Friday and bringing lunch - often burrito bowls - and wheeling her around. I was visiting at night if her family was out. I was loving on her deeply as I walked her home.
One year ago, I accepted the job of Supervisor of Health & Wellness at Nowell Academy - a huge change in many ways.
One year ago, I started my TESOL program at Roger Williams University to support MLL students at Nowell.
One year ago I was filled with excitement, curiosity, and anxiety. I was equally preparing for loss and growth.
It's been a year.
