It's been a very exciting couple of days!
Yesterday was a big deal, for two reasons.
One, my supervisor from the university came to observe me teaching for the first time yesterday.
I wasn't really nervous...
...until I saw him sitting in the back of the room.
But I tried to stay myself,
quirks & dorkiness & all.
And I'm glad I stayed me.
Because he rated me great!
He came for second hour,
and then we spent third hour in the media center going over his notes & scores for me, while Mrs. Gorman took over the class & taught.
On our way down to the media center,
he said to me:
"The biggest compliment I can give you, is that you are a natural. You were born to be a teacher."
Um....WOOHOOOOO!!
He went on saying my personality & flair is great, and that I am entertaining to watch, which means the kids are engaged too.
Yay!!
As we were going over my scores & comments, he explained that he used the word "solid" to explain my abilities so often because it looks bad on his part if he describes me as "excellent" as often as he wanted on his very first observation/scoring of me.
Eeeeeek!!
It was amazing.
Any doubts I've had about becoming a teacher?
Completely, completely, erased.

*ahhh*
Also, yesterday, was another super exciting event.
Drum roll please......
.....prrrrrrrppprrrrr.....
That's me making a drum rolling sound.

{We got our wedding photographs!}
Can I getta WOOT! WOOT!
It was rather exciting!
FINALLY!
Remember, we went through Paisleyann Photography.
You can find her page on facebook.
They look AH-mazing!
My goal is to get them on facebook today,
and then post our favorites on here as well.
Today, just like yesterday, is another exciting day!
Thomas has his interview with Wells Fargo today!
Actually, he's in it at this moment!
Eeeek!!
I'm freaking out.
I'm freaking out.
I'm dying to talk to him,
well, when he's finished anyway,
to see how it went.
We need this.
Really really bad.
His college switched him to night classes,
and Ihop won't let him switch to morning shifts.
So that means he'll be working Saturdays only.
Not okay...
If he gets this job as a teller at Wells Fargo,
he'll be making over $10/hr and he'll be getting around 40hrs a week.
Um, yes.
We need this.
With me only able to work about 20/hrs a week at Target because of student teaching, we need this income.
So my heart is full of prayer, and my fingers are crossed.
Today needs be just as great, if not greater, a day than yesterday!
Oh, and as a side note,
I updated my "Thomas & Me" page to include our marriage.
