The day has come. I am retired after 3.25 years. Ok I realize I can't call it retirement, but I just like it ok. Right now I am thrilled I have to be honest. I think it will start to sink in soon. It's really strange though, because it's almost like my identity has been being a teacher. My conversations are often around teaching. Now I am just hangin out until the babe comes. I have to say though that I don't know how teachers or anyone else works up until they have a baby. Teaching is so demanding with your body, your energy, and sanity that I definitely think it's a good thing to stop before I am unhappy and way too uncomfortable being there. I have loved these past few months. My class was fabulous. So it's good to go out on a good note. My work threw me a baby shower which was sooo nice. Kelsey headed it up and she did a great job!
Here is my wonderful team, Miranda, Kelsey, Me and Katie. Can't wait for our weekly lunches at my house!
I just had to show off Kelsey's skills. She made roses out of little baby socks. So cute, and useful.
My principal ordered Jason's deli for breakfast. It was so good.
I got some sweet stuff. I really can't believe how generous everyone was. Thanks to everyone!
Kelsey, me and Alexis. I am not a huge fan of this pic of me, but these days it's slim pickins for pictures I actually like of myself

What!? You lucky dog. I worked until the day I went into labor. Let me know if you can keep yourself sane without the distraction of a job:) Doesn't it feel good to be retired?

Truly a glorious career. We are so proud of you (me and that little girl, she told me so). Live it up, you deserve it!
Can you believe it is just a short while until she is here? I wish I was there to spoil her too... Enjoy the time to yourself! Indulge!
