Returning to Work...

Ahh... my nice long weekend is nearly over:( New Jersey closes schools the second Thursday and Friday of the month of November for teacher's conventions... Since, it is optional, I decided not to go. Taking long naps seemed like a much better way to spend my time:)

I am actually kind of nervous about returning to school because I have been suffering from all-day sickness! Poor John has been so good to me! I am hoping that I won't feel too terrible tomorrow...

Many people have been wondering whether I'll be able to stay home when I have the baby. The answer is a resounding "YES!" John and I both think that it is really important for Mama to be home for the Daddy and the babies:) We are very thankful for the two years that I have been employed as a teacher, because it gave us a great start toward paying off our school loans and other debts. We were also able to pay for our wedding without burdening our parents. However, I am SO ready to move into the next phase of our lives:)

A Long Absence...


Whew! I have been gone from his blog for a long time!

Lots has been going on for us... John was ordained to the deaconate on Sunday, October 30th. It was a beautiful service, and I can see how happy and fulfilled John is serving in the church!!

In addition, John and I have discovered that we're expecting!! Our little one is due on June 26th. Though we've known for some time now, we tried to keep it to ourselves in the beginning:) We are both so happy and excited!! I have been feeling pretty tired and sick to my stomach lately. I've been checking out many home remedies for morning sickness and have found crackers, ginger ale, and strawberry icepops to help a little.

Teaching has been going pretty well. I love my little kids very much! They are really blossoming now... we've stopped reviewing what they learned in Kindergarten. They are all doing so well with reading and writing! Math is becoming easier now that we've begun to explore different ways to find answers (No more fingers allowed!!). We've also begun learning new patriotic songs from our favorite c.d. Wee Sing America. Thanks to that c.d. all of my six year olds know the fifty states in alphabetical order!! Amazing!

Anyway, that's all for now! I will try to write more frequently from now on...
