My Life

I'm starting out on a voyage,
With heart full and head held high,
To sail the ocean, whether calm or rough,
Out under heaven's blue sky.
The voyage will be long and weary, I know,
But I hope many bright stars will appear.
So I'll sail my ship through calm or strife
With scarce a thought of fear.
I'll stay not here in this quiet place,
Where small ripples blow gently by,
But out on the deep, on the stormy sea,
There, out there, will be I.

Dear Pollen...

Would you please stop turning my car green?

Sincerely,

New Car Owner

Congrats on the new car! She's so purdy! Though the green pollen would definitely be a downer.

So I saw on your gmail status last week that you had pink eye. Yeah, I got pink eye when I was teaching too. Not a fun experience. Tristan got it about 2 weeks after me too. Jane has had it 3 times now and at least 2 of those times I know she got it in nursery. I got it again the last time she had it. Nasty stuff and it is so contagious! Gotta love disease-ridden kids, right?

Me and the Kids!

Me and the Kids!
Oh they love me so much! Ha Ha Ha!
