Will and I are in LOVE!

I want a Healthy Baby Boy

My Due Date is June 14th, and that is tomorrow.
I have had a ton of emotions in the last week - anxious, overwhelmed, excited, happy, energized, tired, and a feeling of being extreemly blessed. 
I want a healthy, and happy baby boy in my arms when he is finally with Will and I.  I am so happy he has had a strong heartbeat these last nine months. 
I know right now he is with Heavenly Father and is being prepared for his life here on earth.  I also know he has been with my Mother, who has been protecting him and loving him.  He has been so lucky to be with my mom for the past 9 months. 

I know he will be here.  I pray he will come soon.  I feel so lucky to be his mama.

All babies want to be Borned

6 days until I reach my due date!  Lets all pray for sooner, I can't wait to meet my little man.

Three Years of Pure Love

Will and I have been married for three years today, and I fall in love with Will more and more each day.  He is the best husband and friend anyone could ask for. 
We are both excited and anxiously awaiting the arrival of our little man so we can expand our little family.  He though is taking his time.  (I believe he is waiting for the Wyatt's to come back from Spain)
Thank you William for all your love over the past years.  You make me a better person.  I feel so blessed to be sealed to you and spend all my life and after with you and our family.

Life couldn't be better.  Love you William.

ANY DAY NOW - PLEASE!

Had to Share

 

Tanner was a student in my class who stole my heart.  He grew as a student, as a little individual, and as a young boy.  He had a rough 4th grade year, and I was determinded to make sure he had a super 5th grade year.  Tanner really became attached to Will and his art and it actually helped him focus and learn the 5th grade material.  This little note that he gave me on the last day of school made everything I did for him this year worth it.  Makes me cry each time I read it.  

Mary Lee is one amazing Mom.  She has a web site in which she writes a comic a day about her life as a mother, educator, women, and super star.  She is awesome.  I have taught all her boys.  And this is the comic I got on the last day of school. 

End of the School Year 2010-2011

These are the kids that loved me all year.  They are the students that Heavenly Father knew I could be pregnant and teach, and they are awesome.

In this picture, they are being a bunch of "hams."  

It was field day yesterday, and it was cold, but they are 11 and they had a blast.
