What a week!!!

Well, the first week is over and now I am winding up for the next one. I am excited about my group this year and though it is large, I believe it is going to be a good one. We did face some challenges at the beginning of the week, but we made it. I have 24 beautiful friends this year and a pretty even mix of boys to girls. My room is a maze of tables and chairs. but somehow we all fit. We have new reading curriculum and we are implementing common core as well. My life is going to be a whirlwind this year. I think I am beginning to sort through some of it.

Now it is time to get ready for bed to begin week two bright and early tomorrow morning.

PS-My little girl made it through her first week of K5 as well, and although we had a few tears(both of us) we managed to make it through. She is both excited and nervous about going back this week.

Back to reality...

Well, today it was back to reality for me. My classroom is beginning to look like it could hold children again and materials are being gathered. After a morning meeting with the faculty I got to go back to my room and begin the long to do list. Fortunaltely, I also have tomorrow, then a day off. However, I am not just getting ready for back to school events, but also trying to finish my masters program with a bang. Please say a prayer for me as I am a little overwhelmed under the weight of all that is happening right now. I know that God is faithful and that I can lean on Him as well as my family for strength.


I do get to enjoy my little girl's 5th birthday on Saturday and that will be both sad and fun. She will only have one week left before starting kindergarten. Wow! How fast the time has gone.

This week...

This week has been pretty laid back. We haven't really done anything. We went to Chick-fil-A appreciation day on Wednesday and played. By the time it was time to eat, there were so many people in line, I couldn't even see the register, so we supported by being there, but not eating. Then we went to Target to get a few more supplies for school. I took the kids to school one day to play on the play ground and unload my supplies. I don't get much work done with my little helpers, but we had a good time anyway.



We tried a new restaurant tonight, Cookout. It was great by the way. Then we took the kids to Miracle Park in Boiling Springs. We all had a great time. We were the only ones there for a while and that makes a world of difference. But Troy and Ben had a great time playing and I had a great time taking pictures. Then we watched the riders at the BMX track before we came home. Now it is bath time and bed time for the Dismukes' house hold. I am going to enjoy my last few days with my babies before I go back to school.

Having fun!!!!
