I did something I never thought I would...

Being a Navy Wife has challenged me to do things that I never would have imagined possible.  I have had to learn to reinvent myself in our new hometown and modify my career.  I happily teach at the Navy elementary and this week I was the sub for the music and art teacher. Ugh, did someone say music? IF you know me, then you know I can NOT carry a tune and I was a band nerd and I can't even draw a circle.

So, today I amazed myself and I really sang for the kids! Today the students learned about pitch, steps, leaps, and octave.  We saw Do-Re-Mi from The Sound of Music and they thought I was the best singer ever!!!! I honestly think it's because I knew the words and the motions.  I surprised myself by teaching two things that honestly scare me.  It has been an amazing week! I love teaching!!!!!

Happy Halloween Everyone! Be Safe!

Hearing my married name come out of the mouth's of little ones makes me smile.  Not so much if the student is tattling.  But another change for me is Mrs. not Senora or Senorita.
