Yay for prayers being answered and cool weather settling in...

I am now, officially, a fifth grade teacher at Endy Elementary. I got a call on a Thursday morning, right after I got a ticket from a jerk of a state trooper. The prinipal called and asked if I was available. My immediate answer was "of course, but I'm in jeans and a T-shirt. Is that alright?" She said sure and literally 2 hours later I was being introduced as the "new teacher" to all of the staff. Excitement! Now, I am the proud teacher of 53 awesome fifth graders. They really are so enthusiastic and full of life. I couldn't be happier with finding a home at Endy. It is a great school. As a matter of fact, I am replacing a teacher who started her career there- 35 years ago. Needless to say, the turnover rate is LOW! After much anticipation, I have found my niche! I've never been more convinced that God answers prayers in his own time....

These days, I'm so thankful I have a wonderful fiance! He listens ever-so-patiantly to all of my school stories and doesn't mind doing the cooking when I am at school until supper. It's exciting to me that in just 45 days I'll be Mrs. Pickler. I have already informed my fifth graders that they are NOT to get too attached the the Ms. Haire! BUT, I won't be the only Mrs. Pickler. Martha and Neal are engaged and they are planning a spring wedding :) Now, I not only get a brother in law, but also a SIL!!

Holly and Derek are getting married this weekend! YAY! Let's pray for good weather. Either way, the wedding is going to be beatiful and I am really excited about spending this wonderful day with my family!


Goodnight! It's 10 pm and that's past my bedtime these days....
