Update

Hey Y'all! Thought I'd give a bit of an update. The rhythm of school continues to go well- we love working with these kids and have been growing in many skills. I have recently been 'voluntold' to do a parent presentation next Wednesday on the program of CDI. While I am very confident infront of a group of kids, I am quite nervous about being infront of a bunch of parents. There's quite a bit of pressure as these are paying parents who are very interested in their kids education!

Blake and I are also gearing up to run in a marathon tomorrow morning. Blake has been pumped about this ever since he heard about it, but I have never really enjoyed running- I just get so bored! Anyways...being the supportive wife that I am...I signed up too. I figured that this year has been a year of pushing ourselves beyond our comfort zones so we decided to add a mini-marathon to the mix! We've been training at the gym most days and Blake has been doing really well- he'll make 10k no problem. I on the other hand am a little concerned! I'm still seriously considering just going for the t-shirt! :) We received information about the marathon the other day in the mail and it included a microchip to wear on your shirt so they can track how far you go. I wasn't too happy about that! Today one of my little guys in class told me he was in the marathon too. He said he'll run with me so I have someone to talk to because I'm sure Blake will be way ahead! Now I have to finish- I can't let one of my students beat me! *Sigh*
This is a picture from the marathon last year. I don't know if I'll ever meet up with Blake if we split up! Thank goodness for cell phones!
