The Derby Life..

Let me tell ya! I am a born derby girl at heart.. and when I say HEART I mean HEART! I have never fallen so much in my whole little life.. but every time I got back up.. proudly to skate again.

Meet The...

Beach Brawl Sk8R Dolls

On skates we are full of spirit and well just darn right mean! GRR!!! haha! 

There... truly are a few things in life that have changed my outlook .. and these girls are apart of that outlook! They are my DERBY FAMILY!

In September of last year I quickly fell in love with derby. After seeing the Vets. on skates I knew it was something I had to do to make life complete! I raced out and spent 200$ in gear and started my adventure in learning how to SKATE like the vets. on this team. Each skater was awesome enough to show me what I needed to learn and throw me around as well on the rink! 

Today I am on LOA and awaiting my return as a skater! I help where I can on the team and try to remain highly spirited ... I find sitting at the rink watching the drive and ambition from these women helpful in my journey back to DERBY LAND! Did I mention.. they were the first group of ladies that I had to tell that I WAS PREGNANT! Now days you can find me secretly putting on my skates in my home... trying to keep it on low profile.. so I do not get yelled at....

Welcome 2013' !

Here we are again... months later.. no post later!

Due to LIFE... but 2013' is 18 days in and well let me tell ya LIFE IS CRAZY!

My hubby and I rang in the New Year in a different manor than our normal....

Friends

Dinner

Doughnuts

and at home for the 12 o'clock ball drop. 

You might be asking.. why it was a different manor than normal.. well it was different because we were home in bed ..spending quality time together before the ball dropped :)

As the years are passing.. we are finding that quality time together means more than a night that requires us to be in over our heads!

We are blessed to have one another and a home to spend it in.. we are also looking forward to all that we can accomplish in 2013 ... together, apart and as a FAMILY!

Never Leaving Me!

Well it has been a really long time since my last post.. where I poured out my heart with a session on TEACHING!

None the less I am posting a small post about .. how I WILL be blogging more about lifes RANTS and RAVES!

Happy Weekend! 

A Teacher's Words...

It truly has been sometime since I have posted.. I had high hopes of posting more while the Mr. was away but life always takes over in the most random ways.. and I keep busy.

One of the things that consumes my life is TEACHING. I have the passion and dedication like no other to be a lasting impression on my young ones that I am with daily.

I stive to be creative in my teaching style and to always put a smile on the little faces of the ones who enter my life.

Over the course of two years I have been in two settings and I have earned my degree in the field of  Early Childhood Education to help me stive to me the BEST that I can be.

This week I relized two things. No matter what I will always remember the little ones who have enter into my life. I will always hope that when I am old and they have grown... that they will remember me for making them laugh, making them love to learn and for always being there for them.

I truly think that I hold these values at this point in my life beause I have no children of my own and well thats a story in itself.

I can assure you that as I type this... I am crying because I have just entered a point in my life... the point in which... I cry because I want to make sure I am doing what I should be as a teacher. More effort goes into my job and classroom than most tend to see. If I am crying it is because I am the one teacher WHO CARES the one teacher who is not there to collect a rate or a paycheck.

 I sat down for a number of parent conferences this week. The conferences all went well and I have a few who are leaving VPK and entering into a whole mew little world of THE BIG KID SCHOOL. I have a few who will stay behind and with me for another year of learning.

I can only hope that in my later life... I will run into these little ones and they will say "HEY MRS. MONICA!" than ask me to give them a "OH YEAH".
