Many thanks to Stacy at Made with Love for nominating me for the One Lovely Blog Award! We have bonded recently over our love of travel and it has been a pleasure getting to know her, so be sure to check out her blog!
I still consider my self a novice blogger, with my first post back in April. I never knew what an amazing journey this would be! I have made so many connections with amazing teachers that I would have NEVER had the opportunity to, and for that I am grateful! The open hearts of teachers and their willingness to collaborate and create with other teachers is something special! Just last week I was invited to join a group of teachers who are facing the same challenge as me in the fall, National Board Certification. I am also collaborating with teachers in a book study for "Learn Like a Pirate". These little things are some surprising aspects of teaching I never knew existed, but have become some of my favorite parts!
Here are some facts about me:
1. I am finishing up my 4th year of teaching.
2. I have taught Kindergarten for the past 3 years.
3. This year was my first year teaching 2nd grade.
4. I didn't have ANYONE pee their pants this year *bonus*!!
5. I have and ADORE my Weimaraner pup, Lexy.
6. My hubby and I are ready to grow our family!
7. I cry more when I am happy than sad.
8. I cried soo many times this weekend! (Watched American Pharaoh win the Triple Crown, Watched Flika on Netflix, Watched McFarland USA) Grab your tissues if you are a happy crier!
9. My husband has a finance & travel blog and there is secretly so much competition between us no competition!
10. I unknowingly spell things out with my toes while lounging on the couch. The hubby points it out all the time, but I don't even know I am doing it! Weird, I know!
