Happy Birthday Mom!!

Today is my mom's 50th birthday! I had a cute picture I wanted to put up, but the internet isn't working at my house, so I am at the library to make this post. I will have to post the picture later (when my computer decides to work). But for those of you who are fortunate enough to know my mother, know she doesn't look 50 at all. She looks young and beautiful. Here are a few of the many reasons I love her...

1. She is an optimist
2. She remembers everything
3. She cares
4. She is very patient
5. She knows how to make a bed the right way
6. She is always reading
7. She is loyal
8. She is never grumpy
9. She is sensitive
10. She has beautiful curly hair
11. She plays the piano very well
12. She loves me!

Mom--I hope you know how much you mean to me!!! I love you and hope you have the greatest birthday!! Sorry I'm not there! Love you!

End of School Year

The last week of school we had some sort of party every day. This is the water party. My students were very disappointed in me for not playing softball the day before, so I told them I would join the water party. I didn't have a chance. They bombarded me! It was a lot of fun!
