Alright, I'm sure you're all sick of hearing about our caterpillars, but this is the last post about them, I promise. On Thursday morning they broke from their chrysalis' and were beautiful butterflies! I couldn't believe how big they were for being in such tiny little cocoons! It really was amazing. The kids thought they were amazing too of course. And I even got to hold them. :)
On a side note, conference was amazing, as always. Josh and I spent the whole weekend at home watching conference together. I am amazed by the answers that we can receive during conference if we are diligent in searching for them. There were some talks that I just knew were just for me ;) Of course it always feels that way, but seriously...
Other than that, Josh and I are just as busy as ever! We have a lot to look forward to soon though! This weekend is my birthday, the weekend after that we are going to Valerie's cabin and the weekend after that is Josh's birthday! So, fun things are coming!! Hooray!
I am full blown lead teaching now and can I just say, I HAVE SO MUCH RESPECT FOR TEACHERS. I thought I had respect for them before, but oh my, do I ever now. I can't believe how exhausted I am every day both physically and mentally. It's mind blowing. What a job! I love it though. It is so fulfilling knowing that I'm helping make what little difference I can. Plus the kids are just so darn cute!
More later! :)
Oh my word, those are beautiful pictures of the butterfly!!
ReplyDeleteI love doing butterflies at school each year and then after a few days the kids set them free, fun times
ReplyDeleteFun update! Love hearing from you!
ReplyDeletewow, I totally missed the posts about the butterflies. That is SO cool! Emma would love that so much. And I'm glad you've enjoyed teaching so much, even whent it's such a big job! Doing homeschool is one thing, but having a whole room full of kids is something I really have a lot of respect for too!
