Can I Have a Clone?

Last night was open house at the kids' school; the night for parents to go meet all the teachers. When I was a high school teacher not many parents came, and I knew that the ones who did were gonna have really good kids because they cared enough to show up. For that reason, I always go to open house. Up until now this hasn't been that difficult - even with twins. I've managed to make it to meet most of the academic teachers. This year was a bit of a stretch - 3 kids, 21 teachers, 1 mom, and 8 class periods to get to them all....With a little creative scheduling on my part, I managed to see most of the academic teachers, again. Sometimes I just popped in and said, "I have 2 other classes to go to right now, but I'm ____ Wilkinson's mom. Is there anything I need to know? Please email me if you have any problems." They were all very gracious and assured me that all was well. This is the only year I'll have the privilege of having three high school students, so I was going to make the most of it! It was even kind of fun. It should be an exciting year.
