Thankful Saturday!

I should have done this on Thursday, but I have been so busy with these online courses and school and spinning that I have not had time to do this. But I have loads of people to be thankful for lately.

1. Carolyn- She has been there so much for me lately. She is partially the reason I keep on going.

2. Grandpa- He is the reason I keep on laughing lately. There are so many times I want to cry, but along comes grandpa with something good to laugh about.

3. Erika- She has allowed me to vent and just get so upset about what someone has done to be lately. She has also helped me to move on and see I am better than that.

4. Shayley- She has been backing me so much lately. Everything that I have said I am going to do or say to someone, she has given me a reason to not do it, but still says I will stick behind you no matter what.

5. My parents- I have been calling loads and loads lately. Mostly because I don't know who I am anymore. I mean I know I am Sarah, but I am missing things.

6. Stephanie- She has just been someone for me to always talk to you.

I just want to tell all of you thank you so much for being there for me lately. If I did not have you right now, I would be totally lost. Things in my life have been so up in the air and crazy. You all have been there for me and I love you all for it.

Masters Course

So I know last summer, I am sure I told everyone that I was doing my masters' online. I have started again. And if you can believe it, I am getting a 98%. I am completely shocked about it. This class is so much fun and I am learning so much. There are so many things I have gained from it and I can't wait to share it with everyone I work with.

My Week

I have to say this was a great week at school. Things in my personal life were not going so well. Let's just say I knew it but was not ready to face it and finally on Thursday I had too. I am currently single and I am okay with that right now. I still love him, but you have to do what is good for everyone. But back to my week at school. So my students had to take their reading and math assessment for the end of the 3rd quarter. I was a little scared for this because I did so well last time. I was afarid I would not do the same this time. I actually did better this time. My lowest score for math was a 79% and my lowest score for reading was an 82% , that means all of my students passed this quarter test. I was so happy that we had an ice cream party on Thursday. The deserved it.

Every friday, my students are tested for dibels and they are making great gains. Well this week, I moved all their yo-yos and I could not believe my eyes. I had to go next door and get Mrs. Mills to show her. I wanted to cry. These kids came in low and I was scared, but we have worked so hard this year. I have to thank the reading lab for their hard work and all of my parents and students for their hard work. They have busted their butts this year. Here is a picture of the yo-yos.

Flowers and New Hair

Well since I got flowers I had to share. These are from Colorado and then when I cam back I dyed the hair and cut it differently. Just thought I would share.

Colorado Trip

So I went to Colorado and it was great! We had loads of fun and I really enjoyed meeting all of Dan's family. I also enjoyed spending time with my man. He made me feel really special. So here are the highlights!!

Highlight 1

Landing in Colorado and getting to see my man! We both were really tired, but finally seeing him and getting to hold his hand, was the greatest part for me.

Highlight 2

Going to dinner for our Valentine's date. It was so sweet. We got dressed up, he sat right by me, he opened the door for me. He even made out with me. I just felt really special. Plus we got to talk about things and really just being with each other.

Highlight 3

Going to the movies with some of his family and then getting a dozen pink roses later. It was so sweet. He sent me to get something at the store, and he found the flowers. And when he gave them to me, I was so shocked and happy. That was the first time any guy had gotten me flowers. I flew with them all the way home. We also totally made out in the store too.

There are many highlights of the trip but these are the ones that I loved a lot. I have pictures of my flowers and some of us, but they are on the camera and I am lazy to get them off. The trip was great and his family was wonderful to me. I can't wait for another trip.
