This is perfect that S is the last letter because it reminds me of something that all of us teachers love since we were little kids…

 Now, all of us love snow days because it gives us a chance to relax or catch up on our to-do lists and also play in the snow!!!

Here are some pics from this year’s snow day!!

What are you thankful for?

Thanks Week: K Is For Kindness

Today, I am linking with the ladies of Blog Hoppin’ for their Thanks Week.

http://imbloghoppin.blogspot.com/

I am so excited because the letter for today is “K” and I know just the right word for that in honor of what is going on in December.

December is coming up and that is the two year anniversary of the Sandy Hook shootings. I remember that there was a movement called 27 Acts of Kindness that would take on the life of their own.

This week, I volunteered with my church to serve roughly 300 meals to families that we served in the Food Pantry at our church. I was blessed that I paid it forward to others and spread kindness to others.

My challenge to you guys is to do an act of kindness and feel blessed that you would work and help others such as when you were helped yourself at one time.

Have a Happy Black Friday and try not to get hurt.

Thanks Week: N is for New Beginnings

Hello, i am linking up with the ladies of Blog Hoppin for their Week of Thanks linky party.

http://imbloghoppin.blogspot.com/

I am blessed that today is Thanksgiving and that it is time to be thankful for something. However, for me it is also time for me to be thankful for new beginnings that are in store for me.

I have never thought that two years ago that I will be writing this blog and it changed my life dramatically. Today, I have a new life thanks to the decisions that I made.

I made some wonderful friends-both in life and online( I consider you all my blogging buddies). Also, I have a wonderful boyfriend that I love with all of my heart.

I also am glad that I was led by God that my talents were to become a teacher and also that I never doubted what I am doing which is to study to become a teacher.

Have a happy Thanksgiving!!!

A Is For A Few Good Books

Today i am linking up with the ladies of Blog Hoppin for their week of Thanks…

http://imbloghoppin.blogspot.com/

And the letter is A so that means…

I just love reading books since I was a little girl, so I thought that I would give three children’s classics and three books that I am currently reading…

1. The first book that I read when I was a kid was The Magic School Bus series. I own a few of them and hope that they could be incorporated into my classroom library one day.

2. The second book that I read was Bridge to Terabithia which is pretty much a tear jerker. Then, I watch the movie and I was crying.

3. The third book that I read was Chrysanthemum because it gave me an emphasis of what I should teach the children when we discuss our rules and procedures in class.

4. The book that I am currently reading is One Thousand Gifts by Ann Voskamp. I love that woman and what she has to say every morning.

5. The book that I read was So Long Insecurity by Beth Moore because it is helping me with my shyness and also helping me become more outgoing.

6. The book that I am reading is of course Becoming Myself by Stasi Eldredge because she is wonderful with how she gave us a sense of becoming ourselves.

Link up with the ladies and enjoy your Thanksgiving…

Thanks Week: H is for Happiness

I am link up with the Blog Hoppin’ ladies for their Thanks Week linky party.

I am blessed for a group of ladies that is great with linky parties and use their God-given talents to good use.

I am so happy that I am happy. I remember that this year that everything that I went through made me happy.

I have great friends…

A great family and a great boyfriend. I am also happy that I am becoming a teacher. I am stoked of what makes me smile, but there are times that I was challenged.

In August 2014, my grandma passed away and my faith and happiness was tested. I remember crying for a bit. Then, I prayed that God will give me peace during this time and hours later, I was singing something with a smile on my face.

There are times that I would be sad about something, but happy because I know that I have a great support system with me.

Question: What are you happy about this year?

Remember to link up with the ladies over at Blog Hoppin’

Hope you guys have a Happy Thanksgiving Break!!!

T is for Teachers

Well, I was so caught up with the spirit of Thanksgiving that I forgot that the Blog Hoppin ladies had created a great linky party for everyone to link up.

http://imbloghoppin.blogspot.com/2014/11/week-of-giving-thanks-t-is-for.html

We all forgot that the spirit of Thanksgiving was to be thankful for something. I went to my church college group’s dinner tonight and we started to talk about the spirit of thanks.

For me, becoming a teacher is one of the inspirations of my life. One of the things that I love about being a teacher is that I am one of the few role models in a child’s life. I recently started field experience and I was so blown away by how I am being a teacher and how I am glad. Here are a few examples from field experience…

Hope you guys link up with them and have a Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Here Comes and Almost Goes November

Well, this month flew us by. I am excited that December is coming up because it is the last month in 2013. Also, it is the final month I will be 23 years old. I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving. I sure did have a festive day, much less a festive week. On Wednesday, I helped out with my church sending out Thanksgiving meals for families who requested it. I love the fact that we are able to serve the Lord in any way, shape or form that He created for us.

Now onto the fact that I haven’t blogged lately for awhile. I was busy with my grandma being home and also having a very creative mind. I won’t say I will now blog daily because it will end right when I opened my mouth. Tomorrow will be the Iron Bowl. This is the biggest game in Alabama’s season because it is a rivalry game with Auburn. Also, I am excited to turn 24 years old in January so I made myself a list of goals that I hope to be finished by January 3rd, 2014.

I have a few tricks on my sleeves and also a few surprises. So keep your eyes in store. Finally, my little Pomeranian and I decided to take a little Christmas portrait, courtesy of my mother.

I will hopefully post more soon.

Thanks, God Bless, and Roll Tide!!!
