Class is in Session!

Here we are in the midst of the third full week of school and I am on my 5th substitute teacher assignment. I must admit, it's pretty exciting and addicting to get that notification of a job opportunity. It is almost as addicting as accepting rides on Uber (my side/part time gig)! I am loving this teacher life! It feels good to be in a position of leadership! When that app notification comes through that a sub job is available, a rush of adrenaline courses over me! Keep those jobs coming! This girl is snagging them up and filling my calendar! If you need me, schedule a time with my planner! Spots are filling fast!

I am in the second round of my graduate classes. Included in this is 100 practicum hours :O Luckily, I can use my substitute hours to count for this! Unfortunately, I will have to do 100 more hours for the spring semester! I am still blown away with how the workload for a graduate class compares to the workload from undergrad! All I can picture is the taste of sweet freedom when I graduate May of 2020! It doesn't seem that far away, but there will be a lot of work ahead of me!

My tiny prince is almost one year old! 10 more days and I will officially have 2 toddlers (yes, Spirit counts as a toddler)! I am in shock of how fast this last year went! Little man is learning new things every day and pretty soon he will be walking. I am very excited for his birthday party. I get a whole weekend to celebrate this rainbow that blessed my and so many other people's lives. He is truly a miracle and I couldn't imagine my life without him!

The hunt for a house is still on! Somehow, there is a small beacon of light shining through very dark and thick clouds for us. We may have a saving grace! Please keep us in your prayers that everything will align and come into place for us to get a house by the holidays! My designer brain is going crazy with all the things I can do when I finally have a place to call my own! Of course, designing and decorating little man's bedroom will come first! I have been dreaming of what his room would look like since I found out about him!

This weekend is my husband and I's five year dating and two year wedding anniversary! How crazy is that??? Two years sure goes by fast when you are experiencing life with your best friend! I am so lucky that I got to marry my soulmate and my best friend! We will finally get to go out and have a fancy date night to celebrate this life we are building together!

If you've made it this far, thank you! I have a tendency to ramble, especially when I am excited! I hope there are more good things and blessings headed my way! Feel free to leave a note if there is a way I can pray for you!

In the words of my son's favorite show, "Happy wiggling!"
