I've been gone for a long time; I know. Sorry. Let's catch up!Mother's Day...
I had one of the best Mother's Days so far. Ashlye and Dustin invited us all over to their home for a dip in the pool. Dustin grilled some steaks, Todd played with Aiden, Tia Ashlye and I drank my most favorite drink (the kick-A margaritas only Ash and D make... with at least 4 olives!), and little Maggie (dog) lounged around with us girls. Mommies had a GREAT day.
So, it rained a little bit. So what! I was way too "happy" and relaxed to mind. Thanks Ash and Dustin! Thanks Todd for driving! Thanks Aiden for making me laugh by acting "strong" and peeing in the grass. (HA!)
Is this the cutest butt, or what?!
At the end of May "Oo-cookie" and Aunt Jan came to hang out with us. We took them to an Astros game! We ate so much junk! Most of it was eaten by Aiden: popcorn, cotton candy, hot dogs, peanuts, ice cream, Cracker-Jacks, and water. I'm proud to say that Aiden was able to sing along to "Deep in the Heart of Texas" during the 7th inning stretch, and his new favorite song is "We Will Rock You" by Queen.
Love you Kieffers and Jan!
School ended, and I miss my kids so much. I pray and think about them a lot. This is a picture of my 4th period class. They made me laugh so much. We became close since they HAD to see me everyday for an hour and a half! (I taught them, and then we had advisory together for another 1/2 hour.)
I learned great things from them, and (most importantly), they kept me focused on WHY I teach. Every day they touched my heart with their humanity, with daily reminders of how tough it is to be a teenager. I sure hope I did my duty and did right by them.
I'll miss all of my students!
Stay tuned for what's happened in the month of June!
