Relief Society Teacher

A few weeks ago I got called as a Relief Society instructor in our ward. I spent a few hours today preparing my lesson and a few minutes a few other days. I am pretty nervous, I'm sweating even while I am preparing it. Just thinking about it makes my heart flutter. It is a bit hot in the office,(ha ha) but ya it is a good learning experience. I hope I do a good job and if no one in my class learns anything inspirational from the lesson, I know I have learned a ton through studying. I always learn so much more being the teacher rather than the student.

Fist Karate Belt

Byron had his first test today in Karate. He did really well! He has to know a lot. He got his yellow belt. I'm so proud of him. It has really been good for Byron to be in Karate. It's been great for self discipline and also to have something that he just does.

Have any of you seen this?

I was watching Dr. Oz the other day and saw this story of this man who is half man half tree. I couldn't believe my eyes!

What a cutie!

Some days it's an extra challenge to have Lilly with us when I teach preschool. But lately she is getting better at doing her own thing and getting involved when she wants. It helps to give her snack early. At the first of the year it was way harder with her. She would cry a lot more and was more needy. I think she is getting used to it now and has benefited so much by having the preschool in our home. Ethan has as well. On my days off they don't have as much to do.
Next year Lilly is going to officially be enrolled in my preschool and Ethan will be in Kindergarten. He is so ready!
I have already started my sign ups for next school year and am over half full. On one of the days I only have 3 spots left. Word of mouth helps a ton. Last year I sent out fliers and stuff, this year I think I'll be fine just by word of mouth and repeat sign ups.
