Wyatt is our county's Math Coach's 9 month old son - and what a cutie he is! He was so cooperative and expressive :-)

There isn't enough room on my desk for all of them LOL. Flowers and balloons on the left from my sweet husband, in the middle from my mommy and daddy and on the right are the over 2 week old flowers from the school from the day they announced the four TOTY finalists - and they're still pretty!

Surprised and honored

At today's faculty meeting, our school Teacher of the Year (for next year) was announced - and I was shocked to hear that it is ME! What an honor!

What a wonderful surprise this morning to walk in my classroom and fine this note from my principal on my board!

It's hard to believe there was so much snow last weekend, this weekend was just beautiful! We went for a walk in the park today and then rode my new bike around the neighborhood for a while - and It was worth all of the wheezing and sneezing that followed :-)

For my birthday, I wanted a red bicycle. Since about a month before my birthday we have been looking for a red woman's bike that isn't uber-expensive. Today, exactly 6 months after my birthday LOL, I got my present! Because I name *everything*, I named her Gwyn (the Schwinn). Here she is on Prissy (the Prius)'s back for the ride to her new home.
