Student Teaching

I started student teaching on September 6th. Ohh what a journey it has been. I just LOVE LOVE LOVE those little kiddos! kiddos just have a way of making days better, give me a reason to laugh, They inspire me to be better, and I just realized I have never passed a demeaning judgement against any of them. They try to please, even at age 9 and 10. I was scared to death to teach fourth graders, but I have truly enjoyed them. I am nervous for those sweet spirits when the time comes that I am done. I am nervous they are going to be broken from their teacher. She is sarcastic, yells, rude, and it makes me uncomfortable. I am the light in the classroom. They can come to me, tell me what is going on their lives, exciting, or sad. They tell me they love me and don't want me to leave. They also tell me that their "real" teacher is mean, and scary. They don't like her. It breaks my heart. I have 17 days left and am completely torn. I don't want to leave those cute kiddos who have touched my heart, but at the same time I cannot wait to get out of her classroom. WISH ME LUCK ON FINDING A JOB! :/

Water Wheel?

Ohh hey, did I mention we are going back in time. Danny had been researching, talking, dreaming, and more researching about water wheels, so he and his dad made one...it's in our back ditch, and with the ditch full it pumps about 2 gallons a minute...sometimes I wonder who I married. I must say though that I will never have to worry if something terrible happened in the world. L.O.V.E. HIM!

Need to get better

I sure need to get better at blogging...seven months is too long, however since we don't have kids, I feel like I have nothing to blog about. Here's to me getting better at blogging!                                                




First off, MY BROTHER GOT HOME FROM HIS MISSION! He served for two years in Argentina! It was fantastic being able to be home with him for a few days.
Danny and I surprised Nathan at his gate. I was so nervous he would recognize me before I would be able to get a couple pictures snapped of my getting off the plane. He turned his head, double or triple looked at me, then walked over and was like WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?! hahaha It was fantastic! He is one of my best friends!
