A New Year!

I made it through the first week of school.  Yahoo!  Today we started the second week of school.  I am teaching totally different this year.  I am going to go through the alphabet in 13 weeks.  We will do two letters a week and learn both the uppercase and lowercase letters.  My hope is we will know how to recognize the letters, write the letters, and hopefully the letter sounds.  My goal is that all the students will know all the letters and sounds by the end of the first semester.  Then we will really have fun the second semester!
Ken and I are venturing on a new adventure.  We don't know anything for sure, but we think it is possible we will have a foreign exchange student before long.  We finished the last of the paperwork tonight.  Exciting!
My mom and Bob got here on Friday.  They drove down from Minnesota on their way back to Arizona.  My sister got here on Saturday about noon.  Mom and I went to the casino two times.  My mom, sister, and I went to Kohl's.  We all came out with more than we thought we were going to get when we went in!  My sister is my current inspiration.  She has lost 45 pounds.  I started going back to Weight Watchers AGAIN!  I am down 14.8 pounds.  She is sizes smaller than me and I am benefiting from her losses.  She had her knee fixed combined with the weight loss she was able to play tennis twice last week without pain.  She so loves to play tennis! So Hooray!
