been awhile.

quite frankly, I forgot about my blog.
Maybe I should do more... :)
I will.

Lets start with what I've been up to...
I had lap band surgery in July.. It went very well, and I've lost 48 pounds so far... it is quite a struggle, but I'm thankful for it every day. Especially when I step on the scale or glance in a mirror!!!

I graduated from Midwestern State University in December with my degree, Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies. I passed all my exams with very high scores, and I am now a certified teacher. I intend to pursue more certifications soon.

I'm substitute teaching and looking for a teaching job for August. :)

My kids are great. Kelsey is a big Kindergartener. She is starting to read, and she is a big ball of energy. She had four teeth pulled at the dentist recently due to some permanent teeth causing issues, and now she has a very cute little lisp. :)
Kiersten will start school in April in the special education program at Cunningham. She is doing so well. She has a ton of signs, and she's starting to really talk more.
Jason is going to school now. He's doing a great job, and I am so proud of him!
