Well, I have been an ESE teacher for a little over a week and I gotta say, it's exactly how I visualized it and I'm so happy in that classroom that I feel like my heart is going to burst.

Riding Horses With My Son

I Thought Lizzie Would Never Ride A Bike
For years, I've been wanting Lizzie to learn to ride a bike. Because a kid should know how to ride a bike, right? She has always had a bike from the time she was three. Once her bikes stopped coming with training wheels, she stopped coming with interest. She enjoyed it when I bought her … Continue reading I Thought Lizzie Would Never Ride A Bike
