Anna is half-way through Student Teaching! This has been an absolutely INCREDIBLE experience so far. I couldn't imagine having a more awesome mentor teacher or a better bunch of kids. My mentor has nothing but nice things to say and the second-graders have accepted me right into the classroom. One sweet boy told me that I seem "just like a real teacher." Now, if I were being paid, I would really be like a real teacher ... maybe (hopefully) next year!

The greatest second grade class ever :)

February has flown by. Anna is still loving student teaching ... it is keeping her busy ... next week will bring full management of the classroom. At the beginning of this month, Jackson decided that walking is way cooler than crawling and that he would walk everywhere he wanted to go. He is a very busy and happy boy!

The most wonderful husband in the world sent his happy wife some beautiful roses for Valentine's day. Nana and Granddaddy sent Jackson a cuddly dog :)

All three of us have been sick at one time or another this month. Yuck! Jackson felt so icky, he just wanted to lay down and rest (this photo was taken a couple of weeks ago).
