babysitters

Josie hasn't had alot of babysitters, my mother-in-law lives 30 min away so she usually watches Jos when we want to go out. Tonight Jeff and I really wanted to go out with some friends and so I had to find someone fast. One of my 7th grade girls had watched Jos at her house with an adult present a few times and so I just knew she would be fine. I was a little nervous so I thought humm...... maybe I'd feel better about having two of them watch her together. My thinking was one of them could call 911 while the other called me. Two is better than one. Two is also twice as expensive as one. They did great and Jos was so excited when they came over. Oh and they both brought their English homework to work on just in case, good girls!

Exciting News

I have 15 7th and 8th graders going to cheer camp with me this summer. This is exciting today. Ask me June 5th and I may change my mind =)

Few things to remember

We went to the Circus with some friends. I forgot my camera but Josie loved the animals, and the sounds and lights.

Jeff had a birthday and Josie sang Happy Birthday to him. I really should get that on tape, it was the cutest thing ever.

Josie started saying oopsie spaghettioes.

Josie likes to get her purse, keys and head for the door saying she's going to California because Hannah Tanna lives there.

Easter 2010

First Easter egg hunt! She was ready, trying to wait till they yelled go. Josie had to stop and look inside each egg, so she didn't get very many =( but still had a lot of fun!
Mommy and Josie



Daddy, Josie and the creepy looking Bunny! she did really well, not too scared.

Easter dress! We bought it a few weeks ago and she talked about it everyday. I wear my beautiful dress to church!

35 days

left in the school year. This year has crazy! One thing I know is I love teaching and coaching. It's not always easy but I love it! 35 days, I can't believe it. I have watched these kids grow up. Literally, they are huge now! I am going to be sad on that last day of school. I sincerely hope I have left them with something. Maybe 10 years from now they will tell a story about 7th grade and remember my name.

It's been hard at times, I've missed Josie on some days, been tired alot, and questioned my ability to do it all. Jeff has been awesome, he knows my desire to work and we have become a great team at home, sharing all of the responsibility's. We even trade weekend days of sleeping in.

While I'm never sure of what the future holds for us, we are talking about what we want and where we want to be, this has been a great year and it's not even over yet. 35 days!
