Tonight I found out that one of my students from last year passed away yesterday afternoon. I am completely shocked and saddened for her family and friends. She was a bright and sweet young lady, and will be missed. I do know that I will see her in heaven one day though, and am so glad for that! It's still hard to process though. Take care of Alexia for us Jesus!

"it's a party in your mouth." --brian malarky, and brobee from yo gabba gabba!

So I'm sitting at home watching American Idol right now...and it's reminding me of last year watching it at WIL group :o) I am definitely missing Val, Hannah, Kara, April, Danielle, Korie, Stephanie, Lindsey, and Natalie! I feel like I am definitely missing one or two ladies, but I don't think anyone actually reads this so I am pretty safe. :o) Although Idol is a little awkward (like when Ryan tried to high-five the visually impaired contestant), I won't lie...I teared up a few times. In the non-awkward parts.

Christmas break seemed to go by slowly, but looking back, it seems like it flew by. Random thought. It's pretty crazy how the weather keeps changing from semi-warm to freezing.

Tyson got a puppy right before Christmas! Brody is 10 weeks old and I love him so much. I think it is requited love, because when I sit on the floor he trots over to me and flops down in my lap. He's already getting (almost) too big to do that though! My parents even let him come to Cypress twice, which is pretty amazing considering the only other dog to come to our house has been Cyril, the 10 year old Grand Champion. The picture isn't that great, but he only sits still for about 2.3 seconds at a time.


But anyways, that's about it. I'm feeling a little pre-school anxiety, but hopefully I can handle the stress better once the semester starts :o)
