What's going on...

I don't have any fun pictures to post, but I can update you on what's going over here in CA. I've been teaching third grade and loving it. I've got some darling students and enjoy hearing their stories and connections to their learning.
Mikey is also teaching now. SURPRISE! He started teaching algebra and business at Rosemont high school. At the same time, he is completing a teacher credentialing course. He is crazy busy and is tired often. He's hanging in there. He works in a more ghetto area of Sacramento and so he deals with students who act like thugs (though I don't think they really are... wannabes). A lot of his students have failed algebra once or twice so they've pretty much checked out of the class. It's a hard position, but he's dealing with it well.
Cooper gets to have a lot of alone time since Mikey and I are working long hours. He's still a fun puppy and has started to settle down and cuddle with us more. There's hope to finally have a real lap dog, not just a play at your feet dog.
That's what's going on with Mikey and I.

Hi Megan! It seems like I haven't talked to you for so long. Sounds like you guys are busy busy!

That picture of you and your team teacher in your jungle outfits is so cute.

Hey, if Mike can handle the crazy LA Dodger fans while he's wearing his Giants jersey, I'm sure he does just fine with his students!
