3/08/2014
As many of us teacher folks are aware, this past week was Dr. Seuss' birthday! Horray! At my work, the littles don't celebrate Dr. Seuss until Earth Day... why, I have no idea. So, regardless, I wanted to celebrate our favorite author by reading our favorite books and of course, doing crafts! I found all of these inspirations on my Pinterest board. Here is...

Life is CRAZY

3/08/2014
Ok, I've been horrible at blogging the past few weeks so today I'm doing a quick recap of life. Well y'all... WE'VE BEEN OFFICIALLY MATCHED!! It has been a year of patiently (well trying to) wait on the Lord's perfect timing and the perfect littles. Let me just say, they are even more beautiful then I could imagine! The wait has definitely been...
