My Little Artist

Yesterday the kids were painting and Kyle came up with this sweetest picture. He says it is "Mommy and Daddy holding hands." I LOVE it!! He says it's because he loves us so much. Oh, if he only knew how much we loved him. He also adds that this picture is before they were born so hence, no kids. I just love his interpretation.

First Snowfall of the Season

They said it would come and well, it did. It is really beautiful and the kids had a most fantastic time playing in it. It makes me want to break out in Christmas carols!

I got it!

Well, the interview didn't seem to go as well as I had imagined. Of course I also imagined them bringing in a surprise spanish speaker for me to have to interview with =). BUT.......I got a call that night with an offer for the job! What an amazingly fast amount of time! So.....I am a nervous wreck but excited and can't wait to get started to see how it goes!

Wish me luck!

I have applied for a job as a Migrant Tutor at the school district and yesterday I got called to do an interview tomorrow! It's been forever since I've done a job interview and I have to say I am quite nervous! The job would be working with migrant students grades K-8, I believe, and is 15 hours a week. It sounds like a great job and I think I would really like it. With teaching and spanish-speaking experience, I think I am well-qualified for the job. Wish me luck!

Bitten by the Bug!

A week ago Kyle started running a fever. The next day Olivia did. We took them to the doctor and Kyle had to take one for the team and be tested for Influenza which came back positive. Wednesday Sage and I came down with it and now exactly a week since it started, Aubrey has come down with it. We are all ready to be healthy again!
