Some fun and not so fun things that have happened lately:
- Gave the TAKS test
- Almost passed out during the TAKS test, had to go to the ER for super low blood pressure – continued to fight this for about 2 weeks as my b.p. continued to drop randomly – much fear and anxiety as I prayed asking God to control the blood pumping through my veins…
- Got 2 new students – one who the Lord blessed me with for only 1 month instead of all 10 months (oh.my.goodness this child stresses me out)
- Maya grew a whole lot, lost her baby teeth and is learning more commands
- Went to happy hour with girls from work – I really am blessed to have good friends I work with, who support me and make me laugh
- Watched Pumas (soccer) games as Javi yelled at the TV and Mavs games as everyone else in Dallas yelled (Go Mavs!)
- RIP braces October 2009-April 2011 :D
- Went to Houston for a high school friend’s wedding (actually friend since 1st grade although she and I fought a lot at first - she had glitter crayons and wouldn’t share with me!)
- Finished the “exciting” books of Leviticus and Numbers, started devouring Deuteronomy and loving it!
- Ate chicken cooked on a can of beer – yum!
- Felt really appreciated during Teacher Appreciation Week with all the candy, cards, flowers, and hugs
- Discovered Words with Friends – Javi says “stop playing that silly game!!” bc I play it a l l t h e t i m e
Looking forward to being the *hopefully* math and science teacher of 3rd grade next year! (i say hopefully because i still haven't signed a contract)
Left Maya alone for the first time - we're home now and she's acting funny (aka super sweet and obedient -- reflection post coming soon)
