Let me start off by saying that I love teaching but man, it is hard work. It is my first year so every week when lesson planning begins I have to turn on the creative juices to find some way to not only keep 22 seven year olds entertained for 7 hours, but also hope and pray that I actually teach them something. As if that was not challenging enough, add parent teacher conferences this next week and overwhelmed, exhausted and never-ending seem to be the only adjectives to describe school. Im just hoping that on Friday of this week I will be able to say that the impossible has been accomplished. 
In other news, IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY! I am 22. Moving up in the world, gaining wisdom and all that jazz. Ryan does not really have the excitement that I have for birthdays but he understands my love for these special days and has never failed to deliver. Ryan spent the entire day pampering me and showing me the love he has for me that made me fall so hard for him. He even came to my class with cupcakes so my students could sing for me.
After a crazy day of work and meetings, Ryan took me to dinner with Joe and melissa (Ry's brother and sister) and I got to open my beautiful Canon Rebel that Ryan bought me. I have not taken too many pictures but I am already in love. Overall, between my husband, grandparents, parents and friends it was a great birthday. I look forward to what 22 holds for me.
aww teaching is really hard! I'm in my first year! but you'll be okay - and happy birthday, mine was just a week ago haha
