Proud Mommy

Today I had a proud mommy moment. I have those a lot, but this one was even more so. I picked up little man from day care today and heard crying coming from his room. As I walked around the corner I saw all a little boy crying. Little man was right next to him. He was patting the little boy on the back. Apparently the little boy was upset because a teacher had just put him down. Of course my first question was; he didn't hurt the little boy did he? Not that I've ever seen Little Man hurt anyone (but I wouldn't put it past him). No, they told me he just does this. He makes sure everyone is okay. So sweet my little boy is a comforter to others. Makes this mommy's heart proud.

Happy 7th birthday to my first baby!

Sneak Peek at 1

 I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm starting to pull together plans for Little Man's 1st birthday.  EEK! Time flies.  His birthday is in March. That means a March Madness party is in the works.  Here are a few sneak peek ideas I am toying with.

Single's Day

 It's singles day over at Kelly's Korner. I thought I'd give it a whirl this time around as I've been meaning to the past couple times she's had this day. When I first moved to Louisville, I was definitely out of my element. It wasn't until I got my second teaching job my second year in Louisville that I really started to feel more at home. Part of the reason for that is my dear friend, Amanda. Since we were hired at the same time and taught the same grade, we spent a lot of time together. Amanda has this way of making everyone around her feel comfortable and have a great time. She has a love for life. She is a passionate teacher, a fabulous sister, a daughter of God and a friend who is there for you when you need her. This is evident in so many ways. First, let me say that Amanda has been in 14 weddings. 14. That is borderline Katherine Hiegel...but it  just goes to show her true friendship to so many.  When her brothers need help with the kids she is always there to babysit. Her nieces and nephews adore their "Na-na". Besides hanging out with friends and family,  Amanda is always on the go whether it be out having fun, at the gym, or finishing up grad school, she manages to keep herself very busy. She's just an easy, laid back girl that you need to get to know. To top it off, basketball runs deep in her blood as her dad played in college and all of her brothers have been involved in basketball in some form or another. She even coaches our elementary school team. What more could you want in a girl?
