Off to Wyoming

Well, here I am, at PDX, waiting to load my flight to Wyoming. We went to a barbeque earlier today, then we left the girls with my brother (Joe) so Ethan could drop me off. This will be my first time away from the girls in over two years... I keep wanting to cry, but the tears haven't come yet. I am a wife, a mother - I am also a teacher, but my family has my heart. I am very excited, though - this will be my first time teaching outside of Salem. I've had two weeks to prepare 12 hours of material - and that was sandwiched between classes and family. We'll see how it goes...
