And in result, I don't get to blog as much as I would like to. I don't get to read as many blogs as I would like to. I don't comment on other blogs as much as I should.
Life is back to busy, busy again. The school year is in full swing with lots of testing, planning, helping, caring, guiding, and learning! I still feel like I am treading water. Maybe year 3 will be the year where I feel more with it! However, I love my kiddos. They are a great group of kids and work really hard! What more can a teacher ask for...well except for a little less chatter! They are BIG talkers. So sweet though!
Ally is in school now too and LOVES it! She is learning lots of wonderful things and always has stories to tell us in the evening. It makes my mornings and afternoons so much more fun having her in my room with me! Great bonding time for us! She will also start playing soccer in the next couple of weeks. I am looking forward to watching her play and hopefully helping out on her team.
Mya is crazy as ever! As I write this she is trying to jump on the couch with play high heels on. BAD IDEA! She had a BIG spill on our steps 2 weeks ago. Busted her lip really good and knocked one of her front teeth back up into her gum. Lets just say there was TONS of blood and I am very thankful that my cousin, Ashley, was here to help my husband assess the damage. I was no help...too busy hyperventilating and trying not to puke. We have made trips to both the pediatrician and a pediatric dentist. We are still having to go back to the dentist weekly so he can keep an eye on her tooth. She is definitely on the mend. Meanwhile, she was unable to have her passie for many days due to the damage in her mouth, so we decided now was as good of a time as any to break her of that habit. Our nights consist of a bed time routine that includes at least 45 minutes of heavy crying. It is getting less and less...hopefully she will go straight to sleep tonight!
Even though life happens, maybe I will try to update my blog from time to time. I love writing on here and going back to read past posts. Keep up your posts as well, I love reading them when I get a free minute - even if I don't post a comment!

Love all the updates :o)
I'm glad you got a minute to post today! And yes - the third year DOES feel much better! My first year was survival, last year was full of much more confidence, and this year, I just feel ready to go. I still feel like I have a lot to learn, but I think my coping skills are just better. I know that every day is new, and things will work out, so I don't get as worked up about things as a result. And I'm really having fun, which is great! :) I hope the rest of your year continues to go well! At school, and at home! Praying for Mya as she recovers and for you as you do all the teaching, learning, caring, guiding, and more that God has given you to do this year! What a great teacher you will be! :)
Oh, how horrible about her tooth! I have no idea how I could handle something like that! Cuts and broken bones are one thing...I have a weird phobia of teeth!
Hope your school year continues to be great! :o)
