Our life....

Wow...so I guess being a regular blogger isn't really my thing! Maybe when I am done with my thesis and have my masters I will be better about it! I have friends with multiple kids that are great at posting and keeping us updated and here I am with one kid and I can not keep it up! The funny thing is I went back to go through some pictures and I don't have much from February and March! I guess we have been busy, but we haven't been doing do things that are picture worthy! Here is what we have been up to:
James-Working hard at his classes-he just entered is third quarter. He is going to ITT and studying CNS (Computer Networking Systems). This is right up his alley because he loves everything about comptures, he can build them, fix them and trouble shoot them. He is enjoying school and has learned a lot. He has also started a internship through the Grand Rapids Fire Department working on computers data entry and organzing data. So between school and the internship he is VERY busy!He is enjoying it and learning a lot!
Mikayla-She loves school and is getting so excited to go to Kindergarten next year! She is going to turn 5 next week, which is so hard for us to believe. I get a little choked up thinking about all that we have been through the last 5 years and how blessed we are with how far she has come. She is still involved in gymnastics and is loving it. We are thinking about signing up for soccer, just to try something new. She is starting to read familiar words and she is starting to write words by sounding them out. She loves to sing and she has an amazing memory for everything!
Me (Julie)- I am still teaching 1st grade. I have had a very challenging class this year, but have learned a lot and feel that I have truly grown as a teacher. I love my profession and am so blessed to be doing something I love. My one wish is that education could not take some many hits from all directions. Praying that our economy turns around and our government will do what is right for kids! I am working on finshing my thesis and looking forward to having my masters. It has been a long time coming, but proud that I am going to accomplish it!
Since I start spring break tomorrow...my plan is to go through my pictures and get caught up on blogging our lives and will be posting lots of pictures! So thanks for following our lives and check back soon for updates!
