Life...

I just finished this book for maybe the 5th time.

I am so in love with it every time.

I cannot explain the gooeyness I feel for every word on every page

and the story as a whole.

Perfect.

I think i stop at least once a page and beg Preston

to let me read him a passage or just a phrase.

Julie, who is the best book recommender,

gave me this book a year or so ago

it changed my whole mind about books and reading

and life.

- I got a teaching job this fall. I took 4 state exams last month

and the job is pending I pass all 4 of them

I have passed 3 and am waiting for the results of the last one.

But I feel real confident about it.

Confident enough to post that I have a job this fall

I will be teaching either Kindergarten or 5th grade.

The principal will let me know...

the first day of school.

awesome. keep me on my toes.

-Also, Preston's first name is not Preston, it is Donald after his Grandfather.

We were with all the cousins yesterday and we were guessing middle names. I told his 8 year old cousin that Preston's middle name was Preston.

She looked at me like his parents were the weirdest baby namers on the planet and said.

"His name is Preston. Preston. Pugmire?"

Funny.

Its like when there's some missionaries

whose last name is actually Elder

so their name tag says Elder Elder.

I always think that's so funny.
