A SPECIAL THANKS!

Last week was a really rough week for me. For some reason I let school get to me. I just wanted to send out a thank you to all those who have helped me last week.

Thank you to my dear friend MINDY who just had a baby. She is a busy young mother and she asked me what she could do to help me. She invited me over so she could help me grade papers. I find a lot of times people offer to help, but it is hard to tell if they are sincere. With Mindy, she is one of the most genuine kind people I know. Thanks Mindy!

Thank you to my friends CJ and Eric who followed the prophets advice of helping someone feel better when I had a rough day at school and took me to see high school musical 3

Thank you to my co-workers (Allison, Ashley, Kathe, and Camille). They watch out for me and they help me when I decide I need to take a "mental health day." This is us on Halloween. It is a little blurry but you can see I work with great people.

My brother-in-law Nate and my sister Julee who know what the life of a teacher is like and tell me that I can teach when I feel that I can't.

The junior high students that danced at the Junior high dance. It totally changed my life... Oh to be that awkward again!

But MOSTLY... I want to Thank my AMAZING husband Allen! (Isn't he handsome? This is my favorite picture of him.) He is so patient with me when I get stressed with teaching. He is always so kind and thoughtful. Last week when I was feeling overwhelmed and a little bit down, I came home to this beautiful boquet of flowers. He then stayed up with me when I was busy grading papers and working on a final project for a class. Thank you Allen for taking such good care of me. I am so blessed.
