Me and Rowan

Rowan fits perfectly on my sholder.

I could hold him there for days. He is so precious.

I hate being away from him. I want to be close to him, not only geographically, but I want to really know him.

I want him to beg to come see me.

I want him to cry when he leaves me.

I want to spoil him rotten.

Loving My New Painted Furniture

So, I needed a new desk. The track for the drawers on the first desk I had at Pleasant Valley fell apart. The second desk I had was sinking in the middle and coming apart in the front. I decided to look for a new-to-me desk at the thrift stores and yard sales. Bingo! My mom, maw-maw, and boys went to a yard sale at Golden Springs Baptist Church and found this desk.

It is almost solid wood. It took 4 men to put it on the back of the truck. My terrific father-in-law sprayed it black at his cabinet shop. Taylor and I painted the other colors on it at the shop. It took more than 4 men to get it in the elevator and to my classroom. I have received many compliments on it. These pictures do not do it justice. (I need Hollie to take my pictures.)

I want to order a vinyl cling of my monogram to put in the center.

Technology in Motion Workshop

Most of the faculty at Pleasant Valley High School are attending a interesting workshop on google docs and calendars, wikis, and blogs. I was the only one in this workshop to already have a blog, if that is what you would call it. I hardly ever post. I love looking at my sisters blog's and would love to be able to post daily.

He is perfect

Words can not express how sweet he is

Rowan's Cute Curtain

This is a project that my Mom and I worked on today! Isn't it precious? Hope Hollie loves it!

Hollie took apart a crib skirt, and we transformed it into a custom made curtain for Rowan's window.

Pumpkin Carving Contest 2008

Carvings and Paintings

A woman was asked by a co-worker, “What is it like to be a Christian?” The co-worker replied, “It is like being a pumpkin. God picks you from the patch, brings you in, and washes all the dirt off of you. Then he cuts off the top and scoops out all the yucky stuff. He removes the seeds of doubt, hate, greed, etc., and then He carves you a new smiling face and puts His light inside of you to shine for all the world to see.”
