It Wasn't So Bad

So yesterday I started the teaching practicum that I have to do. I was at a local middle school in a 6th grade classroom. I'll start off by saying that 6th graders are not what I expected them to be, in a good way! I thought that they were very well behaved and not the crazy wild children I expected them to be. Kendra, The woman I was observing, is an awesome teacher. She was really good with the kids and she had a very neat teaching style. I hope that I can become just as an effective teacher. I will say that it was sort of weird to be observing with someone my own age. If I had done things right the first time, I could be where she is right now. But I look at it as better late than never. I did somethings in my life the wrong way and I am making up for it now, but the point is I AM making it. I AM doing what I need to do to be better for myself and my family. It was hard to be away from Cain all day. I was gone from 7 30 am til 6 30 pm. Almost 12 hours away from my sweet baby boy! I know that I have spent longer than that away from him when he spends the night with my mom, but still. It was hard.


I've got another round of it tomorrow. So it will be a long day for me and a long day for Jav as he is going to have to watch the lil guy all morning and afternoon. That normally is not a problem but since Jav works nights he is normally on that schedule. So it is going to be a really long day for him and I feel bad. Ive worked it out with my work so that I can have the next two Tuesdays off so that I can stay at the school all day and cut down on the amount of days I have to do the practicum. plus I can help Jav out a bit.
Here are some pics of the Lil guy I took within the last few days



My lil guy loves his peas.... and Cowboys! lol


He's got toys, but prefers the toes!


Forever after the toesies!

He is getting so big so fast and it is amazing to watch the way he grows and learns new things every day. I am honored to be his mommy and I love him so very much :D
