Firsts!

Many firsts to celebrate with this blog! First, this is my first post as a second grade Teacher! I have taught First grade for 3 years in a town 45 mins away from home. And I decided to take a position closer to home. 8 minutes away!! I'm in heaven! It will also be my first time teaching 2nd grade. I'm very excited to work with kids a tad bit older. I'm excited with the things they will be able to do in the beginning of the year and beyond. (Buzz Lightyear to the rescue! Sorry tangent)

My next first is on a personal first. My little family will be traveling to Chile for the first time together. We are taking our 14 month son to visit his other family. My hubby is from Chile. We are leaving on Monday and staying for a month! It's going to be intense! (and I don't mean camping! ) .....(if you didn't get the camping joke, say intense out loud... in tents.... lol cracks me up every time! )

I don't know how I'm going to survive not going into my class room to try to move in for a whole month! But I'm really excited to relax and enjoy my vacation. It's actually winter on that side of the world so pray for me! I'm a Desert girl! Today it was 103 degrees F. Lol It was 50 in Chile today! We are spending a week in Santiago and then traveling to Concepcion to be with my in-laws fo4 the rest of our trip!

Be sure to follow me on Instagram to see our trip updates! @sarlisse

Hope you are also getting time away from life and work!
Chao!
