I am alive!!

Wow, these last few weeks have been a whirlwind.  Even after five years in first grade, the beginning of the year is still just as crazy.  I have to say, though, that I am loving this school year and my sweet class.  I have been so blessed to have Chad and my mom take care of dinners this last week, so I didn't have to cook until this last weekend.  I am hoping that things settle down soon... but we shall see =).  I DID survive the first week, though, and I just wanted to let everyone know that I AM alive!
