Obama's First Day in Office and My First Day in Kindergarten...

I honestly don't know which is harder--running a country or running a kindergarten class with 21 students. I went to my school today to observe my kindergarten class that I will be in for six weeks during student teaching, which starts on Monday. I am absolutely worn out! I have never seen so much nose picking, open mouth coughing, or wedgie grabbing, but I loved every minute of it!

I am student teaching at a great school. I am at the BRAND NEW elementary school in the Lubbock-Cooper district. I have been extremely blessed with two amazing teachers to work with also. I will be in kindergarten for the first six weeks and second grade for the last six weeks. This school is AMAZING! It has the newest technology, great closet space, and a Sonic ice machine in the teacher's lounge! :) What more could I ask for??!!?



Overall, I had a great day full of adventure in kindergarten. These sweet babies are so eager to learn, and they all crave attention, so I hope that I will be able to help them learn as best I can.

Also, for all you prayer warriors out there, remember my dear friend Zach Gilbert and his family. His brother is in the hospital up here in a coma, and his kidneys are shutting down, and the doctors are not sure why. Pray for God's healing hands to be on Josh, for wisdom for Josh's doctors, and for peace for the Gilbert family.

I have enjoyed my new blog journey so far. Now, I'm ready for the future...
