So for my few followers and the many millions of possibilities that may have the chance to read this, I am back. It is strange how life takes many different turns and yet you seem to come back to the drawing board of all the things "you would like to do". I have now finished my first year of teaching. One year of reading interventions was GREAT!!! However, I have been given the opportunity to teach a 3rd grade class this upcoming year. I could not be happier.
As for other aspects in my life. I am learning each day how to be a better person. My marriage seems to be getting better and stronger as each day passes. Is this to say we never argue? HECK NO!!!! When will he ever realize that I am right? Always!!! Haha!! Not really many times if it weren't for him, I would have made many mistakes. But hey, don't tell him that!!
I owe all the improvements in my life to God! Several months ago, actually close to a year I made a strong attempt to turn to Him when things weighed heavily on my heart. He has guided me through so many things recently that it is astounding to me to see just how He does it.
As many know I came into my marriage with a "ready made "family". My husband has two children from previous marriages. To date Austin in 17 and just graduated high school. Lea is 12 and about to be in the 7th grade!!! This is crazy to me!!! They are both so very special to me. Now I can't imagine life before them. However, being a step mother is hands-down the hardest job I have had. This is another element that God has brought me much peace with in my heart.
I enjoy writing and reading, the ability of conveying the many thoughts I have sometimes truly feels like a spiritual release. As of now I am reading two books. The first book was given to me by my LoLo. This is my aunt. She is truly a wonderful person. Never the less, this book is about going back to the basics of the 10 commandments. It is in a way an in depth study of how these few "rules" can make for a positive life and character. I am learning much from this and am incredibly appreciative for it. The other book is about preparing for the first days of school. As you can see I am trying diligently to improve my life in two very important aspects. Becoming a better Christian and teacher are part of my journey in ultimately becoming a better person. I just finished a book teaching a wife how to pray for her husband in all the many aspects of his life. It was great! Surprisingly very insightful information coming from a woman on a man's point of view.
My new path in my journey is to write my many thoughts in this blog.
Some things may be random, personal, silly, and sometimes may be sad but I am here!!
