Summer, Classes, and Baseball: Oh My!

Summer, Classes, and Baseball: Oh my!

  kids/familyschool/teaching

I have not written in two months!  Well, I have written a LOT of assignments for my summer grad school class over the last five weeks, but I have not blogged at all.  So, I had three days off between the end of the school year and when I started my first (and only summer, thankfully) class toward my Gifted Education Certificate.  The program is online, which is a format I’ve never utilized before because it’s been 16(!) years since I completed my masters degree and got my teaching job. So, upon seeing the syllabus, I was so intimidated and worried.  Each time I looked at the enormous textbook I was supposed to read over the course of five weeks, I started to hyperventilate a little bit.  While I feel like I’m just now starting my summer, I am glad I’ve successfully completed three of my 18 credits.
If that wasn’t enough to thwart my relaxed summer schedule, my husband added to the busyness by getting my older son involved in tournament baseball.  I love watching him and his team play, but the weekends are overwhelming at times.  AND I volunteered to take individual and team pictures for them.  So, here are the ones I took of Reed.  I’m planning on taking more of him tonight, as well as the team photos.  Then I will spend many more hours editing to make some products I’m proud of.
That’s where I’ve been.  Nothing too exciting, just busy with the craziness that is life.

So, it's been quite a while since last I wrote.  It's been a rather rough patch for me, and I simply didn't have it in me to sit...
