March Madness

So I feel really encouraged lately in my teaching abilities. My kids and I have been learning about Rome for the past two weeks and my kids are also doing their debates this week and everything has been going so well. I am hoping that tomorrow I can post some pictures of my kids debating. We'll see. I can't believe that I am already more than half way through student teaching...it's so weird. I can't believe this is all coming to fruition already! While I love teaching, I must say, I AM SO READY FOR SPRING BREAK!!!!!!!

Derek and I are great, everyday I fall more and more in love with him. He is an amazing man of God and I am blessed, even on the days where I wish he had siblings so that he would stop picking on me so much! :) He's such a dork, I love him.

I've started running again too. Partly in preparation for my cousin's wedding in July (which I am Maid of Honor in) and partly so I can be in shape again...not to mention the weather in Flagstaff has been BEAUTIFUL! This makes me even more excited for spring break. Just having the sun out and everything makes me so much happier, even in this world of doom and gloom lately. There are so many uncertainties in the world right now with the economy and being outside in God's creation reminds me I have a Heavenly Father who loves me and holds me in the palm of His hand and HE knows the plans He has for me. That is so comforting.
