It was a good day....


The first graders (some are my students from last year) are writing poems in class. Today they wrote one about me. It totally lifted my spirits. I am truly blessed to be working with a sweet bunch of kids.

Hi Y'all

Hey Y'all,

I've been wanting to write a blog for a while now to let everyone know how things are going in the sandbox that I call home: Udhailiyah, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. So with that being said.....
I'm doing great! I recently went on a trip to Turkey and am going to Korea in November.
My school year kicked off with a bang: new phonics and science curriculum, new goals from the principal, several new teachers and aides, one teacher retiring, and 7 new students. NO, that was not a typo. I have SEVEN students and an aide!!!!!!!

The national work week in Saudi Arabia is Saturday through Wednesday, the weekend is Thursday and Friday. So this weekend will be a long weekend, Saturday is a company holiday. I was thinking that I would take a quick trip somewhere close, but think that I shall just stay at home.

Send me an email or facebook message.
Let's stay in touch.
