I'm here.....really!

Ok, I'm writing something today because Mackenzie misses me!! I know.....I know.......I'm not doing very well. This week has been hectic.....grades were due and I had many papers to grade to catch up with the week JEB was sick!

I promise I'll write more this weekend and catch everyone up!!

Love and hugs,

Hey there everyone.....

Well, its been a week.......JEB lost his first tooth yesterday!! What a big boy he is now!! His next one isn't far behind either! So now he has a little hole in the bottom row of teeth! What a cutie!

He's also been sick all week....John stayed home with him M-T-W and I'm staying home today. He's just got all of that "crud" in his chest....coughing.....sounds horrible......not sleeping well....which means we aren't sleeping well......and I think tomorrow he will go to school with us and then let him have the whole wkend to get totally better!

AND......we are still somewhat concerned about the job situation/enrollment/budget at the school where we teach. The new principal did say that he was looking into other options for how to come up with the $$ needed....fundraisers, etc. So any of you who were praying.....keep it up!

Not much really going on....vball of course. John's team is now 21-7, which is the best Parkway has ever done in vball!!

Gotta go get some grading done....

ok, here I am.....really!

Hello everyone. I'm trying to do this from school......during a break, but our internet connection is like....."dinosauric" slow, so we'll see how this goes!

School is going well and I adore my class! They are relatively quiet and very loving! We will have a blast this year, I'm quite sure of it!

JEB is doing great.....we got a progress report on him and the teacher said he was really doing well. I can tell he's really paying attention to things when we work on his homework every night. He also has his first two teeth that are loose....his bottom middle teeth. One of them is really, really loose.....I try to wiggle it often to see if I can get it to come out! And man, has the tooth fairy really increased her prices!! My kids at school said the going rate for a tooth these days is $5!!!!! That's highway robbery!! I think I'll settle for $1....since he really doesn't understand about money or the tooth fairy! Man, when my teeth fell out I only got a quarter!

Hope everyone is having a great week. Write me a note and let me know how you are all doing!

Keep praying for our current school......we are still short about 12 kids to meet the projected budget......so far, no lay-offs. BUT I know GOD has it under control! AMEN!

I'm not doing this very well.....

Hello everyone.....I'm so sorry that I haven't written in almost two wks. BAD GIRL!! Things are quite busy with school in session. I know that's not a very good excuse but I do well to even get to my email most days!

Anyway, our school numbers are at 420 officially, so we could use 10-15 more to secure all jobs at my school. I HATE worrying and fretting about this.....continue praying with me. My class is such a dream.....they are wonderful children! I'm going to enjoy them so much! Thank you Jesus!

I hope everyone reading this has a wonderful Labor Day wkend. We are doing nothing but being in a vegetative state all wkend. Nothing much else really going on. I know....I'm boring!
