.little things.

ready, set, go...

nothing says a new year like a new planner with all new 2013 dates and a new pencil to write new events...my brain ocd does not let me use pen in a planner. sin of all sins AND could cause a nervous breakdown if something had to be changed. wish i was kidding...

so i have spent the last day writing down all the important dates of 2013. no school days. birthdays. spring breaks. special celebrations. last day of school. meetings. pretty much everything you could think of. {let me know if you think you're important enough to make the planner, and i can pencil you in. literally.} :) 

even more exciting than writing new dates in a new planner. finding the cutest planner that you needed had to have. {how could i brag on this find without showing the goods?}

next monday i return to work. thank goodness, we have a "work day" which is basically to ease back into the craziness of being a teacher. and being a teacher means; organizing, rearranging, making copies, chatting, and planning, getting ready for the marathon of a spring semester. its gone before we know it. simply blows my mind how quickly spring semester goes by. 

while, i love getting back into a routine; i have very much enjoyed the glory of having two weeks off. to do nothing. or everything. i got to choose. winter break is a love/hate relationship. but fact is, i am ready to my 23 kiddos and all my coworkers. i am ready to get dressed in the morning and put on makeup. or..shower for that matter. im ready. because i am hopeful that 2013 is a going to be a great year. its the little things. 

i will miss being able to spend as much time as i wish with this little muffin. {like i said, proud doggie mom}

side note: please keep praying for Newtown kiddos, parents, teachers, and families as they prepare to return to school tomorrow. no one can imagine their anxiety and apprehensiveness they will experience tomorrow. pray.
