I was sitting here reading back through my old posts and realized how much I enjoy the act of sending my ramblings out into the Internet. It's a form of therapy.
The past year for me has been crazy busy! I had THE BEST CLASS ever!!! We all cried on the last day, it was so sad. They were begging me to loop, their parents wanted me to loop, I wanted to loop. Alas, the thought of seeing them morph from sweet little 5th graders to hormonal junior high students was too much for me. I told them I would be in the same room next year, come visit. I also have a whole list of names for babysitters in a few more years. Truly the most wonderful class I have ever had.
My boys are now about to be 4 (tomorrow), almost 13, and 1. My how the year flew by. I have pre-k supply lists to buy from and 8th grade *shudder. After four years of babysitting for us my wonderful Mom has retired to become, in her words a real Grandma. Now she can borrow them for a few hours, spoil them, and send them home. So we are also transitioning to a babysitter for our youngest. He is so attached to me that August 5th is going to be horrible for both of us.
The other big news is that come August 2nd I will be half-way through my master's degree! I didn't actually plan on even starting it this past year, you know newborn and all, but this opportunity just came along and I went for it. I'm glad I did. The classes have been great so far, this summer I think they are piling the reading and discussion board posts on us since we aren't "working". I feel like I'm learning a lot and that's the important part. (I also get a raise in August for bachelors + hours)
I'm using this blog to stall on a homework assignment that I guess I better get back to. With the big birthday tomorrow I won't get much time.
Adios!
