Calm Before the Storm

Well I got my student teaching placement last week, so it is official (unless something crazy happens) that I will be teaching 2nd grade all semester at Cooper North Elementary! I am so excited and so nervous all at the same time. Right now in my life Im not exactly "busy" for the first time in a very long time and Im enjoying it very much! I have painted, read a book, watched movies, taken naps, etc. Its been wonderful. And now with the official placement email the reality of student teaching hit me. Its around the corner. Crazy Busyness is about to happen!

But with that said, I cant wait to get started and meet my little 2nd graders. Im so excited to learn how to do this whole teaching thing full time. I know that all you veteran teachers are reading this and probably rolling your eyes, but Im excited :) But Im so much more excited about loving on these kids. Im so pumped to learn how they learn and talk with them and then try and pass on as much love as possible.

Im getting more and more excited everyday, but for now Im trying to enjoy the calm before the storm! Im trying not to get ahead of myself and enjoy the calm that Father has so wonderfully and graciously given to me.
