It is already halfway through March and April is around the corner. It goes alot quicker for me because I get a well deserved "spring break" from my school. The joy and benefit of being a teacher! Thank you GOD! I love my job so much! I found out today that it is not always grins and butterflies when teaching children and talking to their parents but it is a huge BLESSING to do my job and do it well. I am still learning...hence the reason I said today was a little crazy! I learned that parents LIKE notes to be sent home when their child gets some time-out at recess...otherwise they will hear the story from the child and it will probably be butchered up. I learned that after a child has a rough day at school and you load the child into the car while they scream bloody murder...the parent is comforted by a simple phone call at home from the care provider to see how the child is. (this sweet baby wanted more time at recess but it was "go home" time and it was COLD outside...he didn't like that very much!) I have had the best advice from fellow teachers and I could not ask for a better work environment. My co-teacher is AMAZING! The Pre-K3 teachers next door are so lovely and my principal..GOD BLESS YOU is an outstanding woman who BACKS her employees up! I love that about this team! God is definitely good! I am reaping His goodness daily and in the midst of chaos, I cannot ever doubt that He exists. There is just to much goodness that would be unexplainable if He were to be a figment of our imaginations! I must go not to steam my clothes for the busy day tommorrow. I really need some rest after today and I need to talk to Jesus!
Oh, and I am going to keep track of my new inspiration...... fitness for a bikini body by the summer...hahahahaha yeah right! No, really, I am going to get fit to the best of my ability just not sure if I'll be in a bikini in 3 months. I have been walking/running on the elliptical and I have lost 5lbs in 2 weeks. I started with about 1 1/2 miles per day then have increased to 3 per day. Today I pushed myself to 6.25 miles. I was making up for the day I missed yesterday. I enjoy it and it help my knee loosen up from the wreck I was in 1 year ago on March 6. Praise God I am alive to see this day. There is nothing on earth worth dying for...even when it feels like you could die (I have been there, trust me!)
All that said to just keep you in the loop! Hope to be 10 pounds lighter in 2 more weeks!
YEE-HAW!
Love Love Love my people! Talk to you soon!

About Me
- Amber
- I am a 25 year old college grad and am taking the road less traveled. A couple of years ago I moved from my hometown of 20+ years and a life of stability and familiarity to follow the call of the Lord. It sounds a bit crazy but I know my Father's voice and He said to go...so I did. I am a Pre-K teacher and tutor and I believe in relying on the Lord to the best of my human ability for every open door to be provided. He has not failed me yet and I am beginning to think He never will...(He doesn't!He is GOD!)I love playing the guitar and I have been blessed with a voice to praise my maker. I look forward to writing and playing worship music with my future husband(whomever God is bringing) one day and raising an army for Christ.
