Life is great!!

I feel like there are so many happy things going on in my life right now!  Thank you, God!  Looking back -- I feel like a Debbie Downer and I honestly don't think I am. HA!  So here's my list of wonderful things happening in my life right now.

1.  I just survived two nights of parent-teacher conferences with amazing parents!  So blessed to have a great group of kids!
2. I received a grant yesterday morning for Reflex Math.  Not 100% sure of what it is yet but it's used by a co-worker who has nothing but wonderful things to say about it!  So excited to get started with it next week!
3.  Getting ready to start a 5 day Easter break with my family and friends!  Looking forward to little on the schedule, spending time with our families, and sleeping in!
4. Found out today that after our administrator recommended hiring another teacher for 3rd grade next year --- AND the school board approved it!!  Thank you!!  There was a lot of extra stress and worry of how next year was going to work with 28 kids in one classroom, scheduling for some split time with teachers, and having my own son in my class.  Blessed to be a part of a district that puts the kids' need ahead of financial needs at times!
5. The weather is finally looking like SPRING!!
6. I get to spend some time with great friends tonight!

LIFE IS GOOD!!!  Hope you all enjoy your holiday with family and friends.  I know I will be spending much time reflecting on Jesus' ultimate sacrifice for us.  He died so we may live!
