Nerves on the First Day of School

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL!!!

Dear Selah,

I love love love you!! Thank you for being such a big kid today and not being angry that mommy was not around to help you get on the bus. I am so proud of you just like you told me you were proud of me for getting a job! I am so thankful that your first day went well and you made some new friends. When I came home you had so many fun stories to tell me about school and it reminded me to just Praise Daddy God for you! I was so thankful daddy drove you and Titus up to see me at my job so we could go out and eat ice cream! :) I love watching you grow up! You are going to learn a lot this year and make some great friends!

Hugs n Kisses, Mom

It was a bigger challenge for me to walk out the door this morning to go to work and not be home to help and watch my baby get on the bus for Kindergarten. I got to work and was glued to my phone waiting for my husband to send me picture updates. Last night we actually took some of the fun pictures! :)

The morning started a little rough for Daddy as Selah's tummy got the nervous ache and ended in some puke! :( Thankfully it was only nerves and Daddy was still able to get her to the bus and to school. It was not fun for me to get a text from my husband telling me she threw up. I was so thankful that my morning meeting was pushed back so I could be checking and using my phone. I was able to call and talk and pray with her before the bus came. When she got home she told me, "my tummy really started feeling better after I met some friends and after you prayed for me cause God is real and He heals!" My daughter is a breath of fresh air some days!

My day was a longer one too since I am in a different school district then her. My school had our Meet and Greet this evening so I was gone from 7-7! I am excited, nervous, scared, and feeling sleepless tonight since tomorrow is the first student day! I know my classroom will have some challenges but I am really declaring some great things for each of my students... I believe some big things are in store! :)

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in The Reading Game learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender. It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long. It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words. These are broken down into six sets of five words. The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game. Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory. Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not). Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Packing for your first ski trip

Pexels - CCO Licence So, you're gearing up for your first ski trip and the excitement is as thick as the snow you're about to conquer. But before you can show off those freshly learned pizza and French fry stops, you’ve got to pack. Packing for a ski trip can feel like preparing for a chilly expedition to the North Pole, but fear not! With these nifty tips, you'll be ready to hit the slopes in style and comfort. 1. Layer Like a Lasagna Think of your ski outfit as a gourmet lasagna: each layer is crucial. Start with a moisture-wicking base layer (yes, that includes thermal underwear) to keep you dry and snug. Over that, layer a warm and breathable mid-layer—think fleece or a wool sweater that can handle the chill. Top it all off with a waterproof and windproof jacket and pants. Remember, it's all about layers that you can add or peel off because sweating while you ski is less fun than a snowball in the face. 2. Keep Those Fingers Cosy Cold hands can ruin a...
