Miscellany Monday

Write random and link up.
miscellany monday at lowercase letters
 
 
Life is crazy busy with school starting back.  I spent the majority of my weekend doing school stuff and sleeping.  I was sick by the third day of school so I was beyond exhausted by Friday.
 
The same day that I got sick, my baby nephew, Gavin Michael, was born.
He is in the NICU and having episodes where he stops breathing.
Prayers are definitely appreciated.
He is an adorable little angel and is so loved.
I finally got to see and hold him on Friday...I can't wait to be able to hold and snuggle him without sneaking around.  Technically only parents and grandparents are supposed to hold him, but I snuck in a little picture.
His big sisters, along with everyone else, are so in love.
 
 
I'm excited for the second week of school.  I finally feel like I'm getting over the hump of all the stuff I need to do.  I defnitely feel like I'm getting into more of a routine.
 
Oh yea, and I'm on a mission to lose 15 pounds....I'm so serious about this.
 
That's about it for today.
Happy Monday lovelies!

Oh How Pinteresting

School is in session.  Although we don't have kids yet, we are in full swing this week and kicking off the year in full gear.  Yesterday, we had John Croyle come and speak at our school and let me just say that he is amazing.  He sure knows how to make a room full of teachers cry.  We were all so incredibly inspired by what he had to say and I'm still so excited about everything that he ignited inside of me during his presentation.  His underlying purpose was to encourage us all, as teachers, to inspire our students and love them all.  He told us so many heart wrenching stories about children that have been brought to his ranch and reiterated the fact that kids like the ones he sees everyday, are among us in every school.  Some of our kids just need some love and need someone to look up to.
I thought today I would share some inspirational quotes that I found with all of my fellow teachers and even those who are not teachers, but still impact the lives of children every day.
 







 Happy Wednesday lovelies.
I hope you are feeling inspired.  :)
