Piglet

 Happy HUMP day, it's my usual work day today, just three of those left this year.  I can't believe it I will miss all my kiddos.  Usually my job has me going from class to class, I don't spend this much time dedicated to a single class as I have for the last several months.  So I have gotten way more attached to the kiddos.

You color my world

 Hope you had a lovely weekend and are starting off the week in a great place.  I can't believe I only have four more days with the kiddos now.  It's like kids this young; they grow SO MUCH over the summer.  You almost don't recognize them in August.  WOW

HTBSWY!

 Here's a great card from the Simple Stories kits that I made for my DH.  Makes me of course think of the Huey Lewis song.  Which of course, he's probably not a fan of, but I like his (huey lewis') music.  So Happy to be Stuck with you DH.

Hello Friend

 Here's the cutest little mini card using scraps leftover from cardmaking during the convention.  The base is a cardstock from JoAnns.  The text is part of a 12x12 pattern paper and the blue is also part of a pattern paper.  I have learned to use all the scraps I get to make little mini cards .

Teachers change the world

 I had to sneak in one more Teacher card for Teacher appreciation week, all the teachers in my school are so nice and so diligent in their work.  They care so much about their students and work very hard at what they do.  People think preschools are day cares but that is NOT at all true.  These teachers do lesson plans, actually teach the kids things everyday, have class schedules, meetings, just like other teachers.  Little kids before the age of 5 LEARN SO MUCH SO QUICKLY it's critical time for them,

Teachers

 On to Thursday, glad to have a day off.  I think there's only three weeks left now.  Will miss the kiddos over the summer. I know my school continues in the summer with some students.  I was told when hired that I didn't have to work summer.  So I really hope that is true.  Here's a little card for all the teachers at my school. I think teacher appreciation is coming right up.

Be my snuggle bear?

 Happy May, it's Wed, so Happy Hump day, I am looking forward to getting though this week and spending a little time on the weekend with the DH.  I only have 4 weekends left to visit with him and I think he's traveling at least one of those weekends......ugh.....I mean, I can hardly complain about his travel, given mine, but I do tend to get a little clingy right before I leave.  Please babe, be my snuggle bear?

Hello Sunshine

 Happy Tuesday.  Hope you are having a marvelous May Day.  Is it filled with flowers or showers?  in Texas both May and June can be rainy months.  Many times, when I get to Istanbul in June it's also very rainy some days.  Very rainy, I have learned to take extra shoes that was when my first pair gets ruined....

oh Happy Day

Happy Monday, just 10 work days to go to the end of the year!  WOW, just 29 calendar days until Turkiye.  I can't believe how much the kiddos have grown this year.  I mean, you see a lot of growth in the elementary school kids in a year, but in the preschool, WOW.  one year in a toddler is a LOT.  I saw the kid learn to walk, run, TALK, sing, DANCE , feed themselves, use forks, wow

 Happy May 1st.  It's the last month of school now and it's getting warmer and warmer here in Texas.  Thankful that it's not so hot in Istanbul yet. Here's a cutie from Simple Stories today. It's a school conference day so we won't have kids but will be doing in school tasking.

oh the Amazing Places you will go

Happy Tuesday.  Woo Hoo, just one more day to the end of April, then it really will be time to start making a list and packing a suitcase,  ha ha.  Is a month too early?  especially when you are going to spend two months in the other country?  I need to very carefully plan what I am bringing with me.  What do you guys recommend I take?
