1 woman band

Today was a mellow day at school. There were only 5 kids, and when I came back, 2 of them were asleep on teachers. Since they were asleep there was no "goodbye song" like there usually is. Maya decided that wasnt ok, and took matters into her own hands. She took out the parachute and sat on it all by herself, and picked up an instrument (a mini piano I think) and sang it herself. It was so frickin' cute. To backtrack a bit, I left about 20 minutes after arriving and with her in tears clinging to me and trying to hug me through the fence once I closed the gate. I kept in touch with the only other mom that stays (Bela's mom) via text. She said after about 5 minutes Maya was done crying, but would start up again every once in a while but was working through it. Before I left I told Maya I would be back BEFORE the goodbye song, whereas Im usually there AFTER. And I kept my word. I came back at 1 and class is over at 130. When I got there she just looked up at me from her intense lego project, gave me a passing hello and kept working.
