A Wonderful Blessing

I have been teaching the sunbeams in our ward for the past 6 months. I had a partner teacher the first month or two so it was totally manageable, but then she moved and I've been on my own ever since. Some weeks weren't too bad, but others basically killed me. It's CRAZY trying to control 8 three-year-olds at church on my own. The presidency must have noticed how hard it's been on me, because I got great news today: I'm going to move up to be a CTR-5 teacher, which means I'll still have about half my same kids. I was super stressed about trying to start the year with newbies from the nursery. Also, I'm getting a partner. They'll sustain her next week. YAY!! I'm soooo happy! I've really grown to love these kids, and I'm glad I get to have some of them for another year. Plus, 4 turning 5 seems so much better than 3 turning 4. I'm really happy and I think this was a huge blessing for me.

Somewhat Random

When I was growing up, my big brother Scott was in a band called "Somewhat Random". Since then that has become one of my favorite phrases.

I decided I don't blog enough. Why? Because my life isn't that exciting. I keep waiting for some big important exciting event to blog about. But seriously, how long am I going to keep stalling in a blogless existence waiting for something massive and amazing to happen? I could be waiting for a long time!

So here's what I'm thinking: in an attempt to blog more often, I am going to start making my blogs short, sweet, and always "somewhat random".

You have been warned.
