Summer
























Summer vacation is here and I'm finally updating our blog. But really for me, I don't have much time these days. A week after school was out, I started teaching summer school. It really has been great so far. In our school district, Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten ESL students are offered summer school. At the school I am at, we have 15 kindergarten classes! But I've been lucky enough to only have 11 kids, which is so nice! We basically have the same schedule as my normal routine and we are just reviewing the major points of kindergarten. We only go Monday through Thursday and I love the three day weekend! I will be done July 7, and the very next day we are leaving to drive to Iowa. I am very excited to spend a few weeks at my dad's and also enjoy catching up with lots of family and friends. Between fire in Texas and flooding in Missouri and Iowa, it could be an interesting trip. But we are just praying things won't be so bad in a few weeks. Speaking of flooding, please pray for my family in North Dakota. Two of my aunts and uncles have had to leave their homes and it is predicted they could have 7 or more feet of water in them. So scarry. They are staying in their campers at one of my cousins. Be thinking of all the flooding that will be happening there and further down the river into Iowa also. We have enjoyed walks in the evenings and time at the park. Jerimiah has been had the lucky job of babysitting the two kiddos and it seems to be going alright.
