High Five for Friday: Hello, Spring Break!


Dawn and I participate in the link party, High Five for Friday, from Lauren Elizabeth's blog. Head on over to Lauren Elizabeth for more "High Five for Friday." 
We're taking part in this fun reflection each week and hopefully you will too!

What a week it has been?!  I can't even tell you how exhausting the past five days have been.  The weeks before school breaks are always the longest.  There were some pretty incredible things that happened this week.  I can't wait to share them with you!

1. Dawn and I got together tonight
It's been weeks since Dawn and I have actually had the time to get together and catch up.  Tonight was so refreshing to talk about work, life, and the blog.  We have some fun things planned for our blog this summer.  We can't wait to share it with you!

2. Inspired
Teachers all have moments they'll never forget as they make their way through their career.  Today was one of them.  We were discussing what the word "inspired" meant, and I asked the students if they were ever inspired by someone.  The first student I called on responded, "you."  Wow.  I didn't know what to say. To continue making my point, I asked her why I inspired her, and she responded, "Well, you allow us to learn and have fun.  You make sure we learn everything we need to, and you make sure we don't have anything to worry about.  That's why you inspire me."  Thank you, dear, for making me feel like my hard work is paying off AND you realize it.  

3. Met My Cousin for Dinner
On Tuesday night, I met my cousin Kirstin for dinner to wish her well on her new journey in life.  It's so nice to see people making changes in their life for the better.  I know she'll do great things in Virginia. 

4. Dinner with Marc on Saturday Night
Marc and I have dinner with friends a lot, but sometimes, you just need some alone date time.  This past weekend, Marc took me to a delicious restaurant, and we had the best time together.  It was nice to just chat and talk over an incredible meal.  We weren't in any rush...it was a good date in my eyes.  He's pretty amazing. :)

5. Calling my mom on the way home
A few times this week, I just called my mom on the way home to say hello.  There's something about talking to your mom after  a long day at work that makes everything better.  I know Dawn wrote about her mom earlier this week, and she hit the nail on the head about loving your mom.  There's no one like her!
