We were suprised on Wednesday night to hear that we would be getting out of school for Thursday and Friday due to the sickness of so many teachers in the Knox county area. Although it is due to many's discomfort and I am very sorry for that, I am so excited that we get the long weekend. Last Friday my mom had surgery on her foot and hasn't been able to do much since and so I got permission to come home and help my dad on the farm for a few days! I surprised my mom..she had no idea that I was coming! SO FUN!
