A new chapter

Every year when I start back to work Big Jon & I sing the "Back to School" song from Billy Madison.  He thinks it's really funny the way I sing it so I ware it out. :) 

Today was my first day back without the kids.  I cannot believe how quickly this summer went by, but I am really excited about starting school.  This year is bringing lots of new, exciting changes in my life.  I'm teaching a new curriculum- career exploration.  Have new yearbook staff.  Starting my Specialist in a couple weeks.  Getting a new last name (2 months from TODAY in case you were wondering!).  Buying a house (hopefully? ha!).  Having lots of upcoming shower fun with friends & family.  Becoming a wife.  And I get to go on my honeymoon! Woo hoo!! 

Like I said, I am super excited about all of this- definitely good changes.  Gotta stayed prayed up & keep the armor on...transitions can be tricky. 
Here's to another school year...and a new chapter.
