Last second Champs

SO the week before school started I got rehired to the position I was in last year. I will be teaching children with severe behavior disorders. It is lots of fun, never boring, and a challenge that I love. you have to love these kids or get a different job and I love these kids.. most days. :)








Laurana and jareth started a new daycare. the one laurana was at last year didn't have room for jareth so we had ot move them both. they are now at HArvest Daycare in richmond. so far we are very pleased. It cost us alot more to send two and 4 days a week but we are pleased and daddy and mommy can both work for now.




Jareth has really grown he was 11 lbs 10 oz at his 2 month check up today. he is bright, eats well, sleeps well (though not all night yet), and smiled at me for the first time to day. I love my little boy.





Laurana is growing as well. she was 33lbs when we went into day to get her medicine for her ear infection. she was sad casue she wants to go to daycare tomorrow and we had to say no. but she gets to spend the day with papa and she loves that. she is singing, dancing, and talking up a storm. She comes and gets us when jareth cries, and really takes care of her baby brother.. she was not happy with the nurse that gave him a shot today.


Brad is doing well, not a huge fan of his job, but it is a good job that he is good at. his back is sore from moving myclassroom (did I metion that even though I got the same job, the day before school started I had to move my whole classroom down teh hall and had to empty that classroom of all the reading room stuff that was in there first. with one day to do it.) Brad was a life saver who worked very hard but now has a sore back from wher ethat school bus rear ended him a few years back.


Life is good, I love my family, I love my job, and am even getting a little sleep right now... although I wish I was getting a little more ;).

Yay for jobs!!! And I'm glad it worked out, not just for you, but for the students you had last year. Consistency is key in reaching... well, any child, not just EBD...and you had already built a caring, trusting relationship with them. And of course, your own kiddos continue to be absolutely adorable.

Annevsary's and baby firsts

Okay, let see, our 4th annavsary was this week. We have been married four years. It feels a little longer. I guess we have just packed alot into it and that makes it seem longer. I am really very happy/glad, that I married brad. He has been supportive when I have been flipping out. He takes care of me, and needs me, he is calmed by me when he is flipping out, he has created the cutest little bear with me, we have shared laughs, football games, Musicals, movies, TV shows, books, basketball games, tears, hardship, lack of funs... in short, the better and the worse, the richer and the poorer, the sickness and the health, alaughter and the sorrow, I married a very specail man and I am truly blessed because of it. I can't thank God enough that He saved bard for me. As for First, this week the baby slept all night for the first time. We fed her at 9:00 pm, put her down and she doesn't get up til around 7:30. (of course if we get up early and start moving around she wakes up too) but ...

Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Sanity

Okay so this week has been a little wild. Between getting ready for testing at school. Trying to keep students who are ready for summer focused. PMSing, Brad having his huge action research proposal due yesterday and many other little things, I have felt just the slightest bit overwhelmed. I will say that Sanjya finally got voted off American Idol. He couldn't sing, coldn't dance and there and there was really no reason he made it this far above and beyond that people wanted to see what crazy thing he would do each week. Well finally they got it through their heads that he coudln't sing and sent him packing, me and Simon Cowl were thrilled. Please continue to pray for brad, his feet and shins are still bothering him. wE think it is shin splints but we are not sure. He is giving them the 2-4 week rest period that shin splints need and if they don't get better he will go to the dr. as I mentioned above, testing starts next week, here in teh state of Kentucky, and th...
