Since these photos are not to scale I enlarged the bottom one so you can see how big she has gotten compared to the bear (who, of course, has not changed size). Wow!

The "Beyond" Part...
So, my blog title is "Baby Bump and Beyond"... but if anyone has noticed I did a great job maintaining my blog posts with the baby bump part... and the beyond part, well, I am sucking at. I always have what I think are great blog post ideas in my mind... and then Irie needs milk, or her diapers need to be thrown in the wash, or I need to write an IEP for the following day's meeting, or I need to make more food since I just fed Irie and I just realized I am STARVING. Anyway... excuses, excuses. This summer I plan to update this blog with fun happenings of gardening, cloth diapering, breast feeding, and my life with a one year-old.
Excited? I am!
Teacher Appreciation
This week is "Teacher Appreciation Week" and I feel very much appreciated. As a new teacher, a new mommy, and a pretty new wife, this year has been quite an adventure. All of my children (including both my students and my own little love) are so good to me. On a daily basis they show their appreciation for me in a number of ways. My students do a wonderful job of testing my patience. They make me realize more about myself as a person. They make me a better teacher, a better mother, and a better person. My job is to teach them... and they get to teach me, too. I am appreciative of every one of my students and every child who has made an imprint on my life. I have been told "you have your heart wrapped so tightly around each one of your students"... and I am starting to notice that as true. They make me crazy, but like Jimi Hendrix once said, "craziness is like heaven".
I also feel so much appreciation for every teacher I have had in my life (and that is A LOT of teachers)! If it wasn't for my positive experience with school I would not be in the profession I am. I love you, teachers. And I also love all the other "teachers" (aunties, grandmas, uncles, grandpas, daycare providers, paraeducators, etc.) Keep it up, teachers!
