The things you find when cleaning....

So, as you can tell, it's just been a day or two (or month or year or 3 or 5) since I last posted.  Yes, time has crept up on me, and crept on by me!!  While rearranging and reorganizing my bookmarks I noticed this little link that hadn't been clicked on in awhile.  So, out of curiosity, I clicked it!  Lo and behold.....here I am!

Just a thing or two (or two or twelve) has changed since my last post here.  Sean is now 15 yrs old, in 10th grade in high school, has his driving permit (Lord help me), and is actively involved in Science Olympiad, both competing at the high school level, and helping coach at the middle school level.  He has also added in Robotics this year!  Whew, like I needed to drive him to another activity!!

Kaelyn is now 11, and in 5th grade, last year in the elementary school!!  *insert sad face here*  She is loving karate twice a week, girl scouts a few times a month, good news club weekly, and archery club weekly!  She keeps me busy and on my toes, but she's enjoying everything she's involved in!!

Liam and Rylee are 8 now, and in 3rd grade.  My babies are so much babies anymore!!  They are just like their big siblings, keeping me going with karate, cub scouts and girl scouts, good news club and archery club!  I don't even remember what life was like without an activity every evening!!

David is still working at Cryovac, but has changed positions.  He is not in charge of safety around the plant, and works a mon-fri 8-4 job.  That was an amazingly welcome change for us!  After years of working late, or working weekends, he is finally consistently home by 5 and off pretty much every weekend!!  We are loving it!!

As for me, I substituted and then taught part time at First Baptist Church preschool, the same preschool all 4 kids got their educational start at!  I enjoyed it so much that I started school part time in the Fall of 2016, going for my Early Childhood Education associates degree.  I am currently teaching in the 2k/3k classroom, and loving it immensely!!

I make no promises, but I am secretly hoping to update this at least occassionally!!  This is such a great way for me to keep up with our comings and goings, and maybe someone can get a laugh about our crazy life!!!!
