End of the school year

Well another year of school has come and gone. This last part seemed to go so fast. Payton wanted to go to school today because she missed her teacher. That is the one thing I do love about her school, they have great teachers. I always love to compare the pictures of the first and last day of school and she how much she has grown. I know she has learned so much and made some new friends and she is excited for second grade.

 

  She got a beach ball from her teacher on the last day and the kids got to sign them with sharpie. I thought this is such a fun idea for kids and a great end of the year gift!

 This year was my first year of subbing up here and it is a little different than Oregon. It was definitely challenging but I learned a lot and made so many great connections. I also was so excited that I got to teach at Payton's school and I especially love that when I subbed sometimes I got to have lunch with her teacher who is so sweet. It was also fun to meet student there and Payton loved having her mommy at school sometimes.  It really  was great to feel respected and appreciated after last year at a private school where I did not. It just goes to show God's plan is better and maybe we can do more good at a public school , we can be the light in the darkness.
 We are excited to have some fun this summer and have some new adventures. Now to make that summer fun list so the fun can begin!
