Being an adult....

is tiring. I am full swing into my new job. I am really really loving it. The kids are so cute, the people are so nice, but I am tired all the time. Who knew that working full time would be exhausting? Gosh, when's my next nap?

Here are a few tidbits that you might enjoy:
- We took the kids to Hawaiian Falls (a small local waterpark) and I was in charge of the kindergarteners and 1st graders. One of my kids pooped in her bathing suit and I had to "take care of it". Wow.
- We were writing a note to our executive director and while the kids were signing it, one of the English speaking first graders asked if she spoke Spanish. I said that I didn't think so and I asked why he wondered. He looked dejected and said, "Oh, I wanted to sign my name in cursive." (as in he thinks that writing in cursive means you're writing in Spanish)
- I have the distinct honor of driving our 10-passenger van because the summer teacher isn't on the insurance yet. I was really nervous about it. On my first ride with the kids, I hit the curb on the way out of the parking lot. One of the kids said, "I thought you had your driver's license" to which I replied, "Hey! I don't need you to be rude right now!"
- This past Friday, we got the chance to go to some professional cooking classes. While the kids were eating lunch, I went back into the kitchen to get a cupcake and one of our first-graders was dancing (read: pelvic thrusting) to the music playing in the kitchen. hahahahaha.

Alex got officially accepted into grad school and he starts August 10th. He is really pumped. He's been such a great husband while I'm transitioning into this new job. God has really blessed us with some great friends and family. We'll keep you posted on any new developments!
