And so the count down begins...

Hey, hey, hey...

Well I have been home for 6 and a half weeks now which means my time here is quickly coming to an end.  It has been a great time back in London; I had the opportunity to teach grade 2 (which was AWESOME) and had the chance to see a lot of great friends.  There are a few I still have to see but only a limited time in which to see them.  I know that we will do what we can...
On January 2nd, I will find myself flying up to the North Pole... Okay, so it's Thunder Bay but I am sure it will feel like the North Pole.  Last week I was checking the temperature and it was -24 C... What am I going to do???  Wear lots of layers I assume.  I am looking forward to heading back up though and seeing my peeps up there.  I cannot believe I only have 9 more weeks of classes.  It is going to fly by and I want to cherish every minute!
I hope you are all ready for Christmas although I know I am not.  ha, ha...  I will write on or before Saturday, so happy prepping everyone!

Check It,
OneLove

WOW! It has been a while...

Hello all!!!  I cannot believe I haven't written anything in exactly a month... Wow, I have been home for a month and what a busy month it has been!  I cannot even begin to share how happy I am to be in London and doing what I have dreamed of doing my whole life.  I cannot imagine doing anything other than teaching.  I LOVE IT!  I have been student teaching in a grade two class and it is an absolute joy.  I mean, some days they can be little terrors but for the most part, they are awesome kids and are very smart.  I have one official week left but I will be going in for two more weeks so I can finish the year off with them.
Home has been crazy!  Trying to see people and feeling like there are never enough hours in a day.  But as it gets a little closer to Christmas I am reminded that I will be headed to the Great White North soontime!  We will see just how weak I am when it comes to the cold. ha ha... This will be an interesting experience.  Well boys and girls, I am off to do some marking.  I hope you are all having a great weekend.  Only 19 days left until the Jesus' Birthday!!!
