Exhausted. Being a young mom people often ask me "how are you doing?" Well, I am exhausted. I am going to school full time, I am momming full time and I am doing the best I can. While I know I have the luxury of not having to work during this time, it doesn't make it any less exhausting. Especially as we are entering a new phase with our daughter.  Ginny gets all of my attention during the day everyday except Tuesdays and Thursdays (I am in class at Sam Houston State University). At night I study and do homework for 3-4 hours and I NEVER end up in bed before midnight. Lately life is going to bed around 1 am and waking up bright and early to "hot diggity dog mama" around 6 am.  As I mentioned we are getting in to a new phase with Ginny, she is quickly approaching 2 years old. I know everyone talked about the "terrible twos" and I hate to call it that, because I wont lie, I do think she is perfect as most mothers do. However, this week, this w...

Taken For Granted Living in a barn is not where I pictured myself being for this long. I always assumed we would buy a house in a little neighborhood and raise our babies there. At this point in our lives though it is too hard to pass up the family discount on the rent, my husbands family being so close and all the money we are saving. However, on nights like last night I have a hard time staying positive and not thinking "GET ME OUT OF HERE!" Last night after my bubble bath, our septic system erupted. As I stood there drying off, I watched my bath tub fill with brown, murky, disgusting water. Our toilets began bubbling and our little barn house started to smell like sulfur. It is moments like those that make me think "what are we still doing here?" and "when can we buy our own house, in a cute little neighborhood?". Who wants to deal with a septic tank, especially one that is filling your yard and your bath tub with only heaven knows what! ...

Kids. Why are children so intimidating? Today I taught my first interactive read aloud lesson to my kindergarten mentor class (if you haven't been following along, I am a teacher in training). I read through my book and planned all weekend, but when I sat down to start reading, I froze for a moment. I just stared at this group of kiddos looking up at me and I thought "what if I mess this up!" Children are the most honest group of humans on the planet, and I think that is where my fear stemmed from. I knew they would tell me if they hated it. I also kept thinking that everything you do impacts a child, and I just hoped my lesson would make a positive and meaningful impact. Luckily, they didn't hate it. They actually did better than I could have imagined. I tasked them to think about the different topics from the book while we read. After the book we discussed topics, they came up with several more topics within the book than I anticipated, and the students who r...
