I would say that the first parenting class did not go so well. Not that anything went wrong, it was just boring. I should have done tonight's lesson yesterday because tonight is fun, and tomorrow is lively. But you learn...

I had 4 moms there, but one was distracted and waiting for her bail. It was the first time I've ever been there and saw someone emerge into the clear air a free woman. (For now). That was something. When they came to get her, she jumped and laughed and hugged and hugged. Everybody's happy when someone gets to go home.

Lesson of the night--you just can't go deeply on the first night. We all don't even know each other. We'll see how tonight goes.
