“All Aboard!” Peep, Peep!
As I sit down and write this post in anticipation of the
first day of school tomorrow, I can’t help but feel like I am riding in a
train, just pulling away from the station and embarking on a new
adventure! There will be new places to
explore, new people to meet, and new things to learn! I am excited to find out what amazing things
I will discover during the next 10 months, and yet still a bit nervous about
what things lay ahead.
As these thoughts cross my mind I can’t help but remember all the wonderful stops that I have already had the chance to experience. I have had the opportunity to stand on top of a mountain, and to camp overnight in a small cabin with only a wood stove to keep us warm on a cold winter’s night. I have put my feet in the ocean on the West coast, and given a hug to one of my favourite characters, Tigger. I found a great guy along the way, married him, and have been sharing my adventures with him ever since! After my high school diploma, I took a few years to explore the sights, and then continued onto the University of Calgary, completing a degree in History and Archaeology first, and then an Education degree so I could become a Teacher. I have had the opportunity to teach and play with kids from 8 different classes, and enjoyed this experience so much, I even had to stop along the way and have some of my own. I have held three newborn babies, and watched at least one of them grow old enough to board the school bus and go to school just like the students I teach! What a journey!
I am not really sure where this track will take us, but I
hope that you will come along and enjoy the ride with me! I look forward to meeting you and sharing the
adventure! Better hurry though, this
train’s a leaving!
Chugga, Chugga, Choo, Choo!
