Wow its been a while..



OK so I have fallen off the blog wagon for a while, so here I go. We are doing well in the sunshine state minus a few ups and downs. I am getting ready to celebrate one year at my job. I currently doing three phonics classes and two math. That consumes most of my morning then in the afternoon I get to help out in all the classes. We recently had a fall party which we had to dress up as you can see below.

I was Miss America and Evanle was Cleopatra..Its was alot of fun! Then the friday before I got to go with our preschoolers to tricker treat at the hospital.


Evanle is doing okay in school. This year is turning out to be a bit harder for her as they is alot of focus on writing and its not her strong points. She recently was tested for gifted she missed getting in by 2 points. So next year she will be tested again. She has really high math scores for her age they say. She is doing chorus this year..which she loves but I could do without the singing all the time.

We are currently planning our trip to German to see my parents in April. We tried to get her passport done on Saturday but I failed to call first and they only do appointments that day. So we just got her picture done at CVS. It was very cute and so grown up. We cant wait to get over there and explore Europe.

One Proud Momma

The end of the school year is here and boy my girl did me proud. Evanle has been doing good all year long in school. Yesterday she had her final award ceremony and she cleaned house. She got honor roll again, one day only missed all year, reading achievement and a character award. Her school does a character program in which they honor students who represent the characteristic for that grading period. Evanle would get so upset that she didnt get the "red shirt award" (they get a red shirt) and how she was never going to get one. So yesterday her face was priceless when they said her name. The character was Citizenship. Not that the other characters are not important but to me this was a great one to get. I too got a present for my honor student...a cute shirt that says "Proud Parent of a Lanier Elementry Honor Student". Through out the year I have watched my baby grow up so much. She has taking our move and all the things that have come with it better then I could of thought she would. As of tomorrow my baby is officially a second grader and on her way to growing up quicker then I would like. Proud more then sad are my feelings today for she is turning out better then I could ask!!

Long time no Blog

So I have been not so good with posting to my blog. Im good at looking at others but not doing my own. Where to start....
Well Evanle is doing really good in school she just made honor roll for the three 9 weeks in a roll. She has met the reading level goal for the end of the school year already and her teacher thinks she will be at a level 20 by end of this year. Which will put her head of what is expected at the start of second. I would add a picture but for some reason wont upload to the site.
My work is going well bout to pass my 120 day mark. My class is running on most days smoothly now and really love seeing my kids change day by day. I have done all my florida required class but one and may look into getting back to school in fall. Kinda have to about start all over cause lots of my class will not transfer.
Weather is getting hot and we are spending most wekends at the beach. Last weekend Evanle and I did mother and daughter games at church. We took one first place and two second place medals. I got so sunburned on my legs but we had alot of fun together.

A New Year. A Year Older.

Well it is here the New Year. I still think wow when I write 2009 where did the time go. I spent my new years eve babysitting and working on my computer. Sounds fun doesn't it? Yep and then few days later my hard drive died on me. Luckily I talked my way to dell and they sent me a free hard drive. So now I am back on and running.

My new job is going good. It is defiantly different atmosphere then what I am used to. My curriculum is all planned out for me down to what stuff to discuss for the theme. Every two weeks we have new theme which requires the room to be redecorated. My new parents have been very welcoming and so have my co workers. I am still working on learning all the kids names in the center. There are only about 110 children enrolled. Really I just need to know my late children for when left in charge. My new schedule is nice but taking time to get used to. I don't get home till seven pm and then have to check homework, listen to Evanle read, eat dinner sometime and put her to bed by 8 ish. But hey I always have 40 hours since I cant leave till all the kids leave, so I love that part.

So as of tomorrow I am 27 years old. For some reason this is a hard birthday to me. I guess its cause its so close to 30. Soon I will be what I used to think was old. Or maybe just other factors in my life that make it little hard to grasp. Oh well I have to deal and get over its happening. But for now on I think I will forever be 27, sounds good to me.
