"God expects you to have enough faith and determination and enough trust in Him to keep moving, keep living, keep rejoicing. In fact, He expects you not simply to face the future (that sounds pretty grim and stoic); He expects you to embrace and shape the future--to love it and rejoice in it and delight in your opportunities."

~Elder Holland, Apostle of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

Not -so- old anymore

So I guess I found a few more things to write about. Plus I liked re-designing everything. :)
Some funny substitute teaching stories:

-A 3rd grade girl fell asleep in class. I though she was faking until she fell off of her chair!

-A 3rd grade boy tried to leave early from school 15min. before the final bell rang. He told me he was done, and wanted to be out in the sun!

-Completely out of the blue, a 3rd grade girl told me, " I know how to make babies. But I don't want to say." (this same girl had trouble spelling the word "it") !!!

Never a dull moment!

Gov. Sarah Palin

A McCain campaign staffer warned Gov. Palin that the media and the Obama campaign would go after her like crazy. A no-holds-bar bar approach. Anything goes.

And boy oh boy have they. They are so disgustingly low it would be unbelievable until you remember who we're talking about here.

Gov. Palin's answer to that staffer was, "You know the difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull? Lipstick."

I think she is my hero.
