First time seeing the ocean

Well it's been a while since I updated my blog. I have been busy busy trying to get ready for school. I am ready for my little 4th graders but its already way different than high school. WAY more lesson plans, getting room decorated, and getting to know the new people I will be working with. They are all wonderful wonderful people and go out of their way to try and help me. It has also been great seeing Coach White and Michele. I am sure this will be an interesting year with Michele Banks and Brach White back under the same roof!!!! I start Monday and the kids start Wednesday. Please remember me in your prayers. I am not really worried about the meeting new people part or the kids but leaving Braedon is not going to be easy. He is staying with a lady over there that has a daycare in her home and she is super sweet but I still gotta leave him. It was hard telling everyone bye at Tender Years last Friday but I managed to keep it together. I love each and every one of those children almost like my own and I miss them everyday. They are all lucky and are still staying together with the same day care workers. SO they don't know how good they got it. But I have chose my path with much prayer and thoughts and think I have made the right decision. So I am not going to harp on my feelings about any of that any longer.

We went to the beach this past week. BOY WAS IT A TRIP. Braedon had the time of his life. I am so glad I took him at this age. It was just wonderful hearing his giggles and watching his eyes light up every time we walked toward the ocean. He loved the sand, loved the water, and was a great great baby the entire time. I will say this. My trip to the beach was nothing like it used to be. I almost need a vacation to get over my vacation. Praise the Lord Jenn Jenn let the Savanah stay with us. OH my word, she was a God send. She is the best little baby sitter. Don't get me wrong!! Mama and Jacob and Amber were a lot of help but Savanah was wonderful. Johnathan came down Sunday night and surprised us and spent the night. He took me, Braedon, and Savanah to Bubba's to eat and then to Adventure Island for the "kids" to play arcade. The "kids" had a blast too. We went to the Hangout as well and it is great for anyone with children. I will post some pictures for everyone to see. There are not very many family pictures cause we took a pile of them the week before thanks to Catherine. She did a great job. Maybe one day I will post some of them when I can figure out how to do it like Cat said I could. Anyway have a great weekend everyone. All pictures from the beach are on facebook for those that are friends with me.
