Well, it's Friday afternoon and I'm waiting for the parking lot to clear out some before I head out. I have to be back here by 5:45 for a basketball game (only one more after tonight - yay!!!). I figured now was as good a time as any to write a blog while I'm wasting time :)
This week went by so fast it's crazy - I sure hope the rest of the school year flies by too, or at least the weeks until Spring Break. Some of my "teacher friends" and I are planning a trip to New Orleans over Spring Break to see our friend Patsy who used to teach with us. She moved to Destrehan, LA (right outside of N.O.) last summer to be closer to her family who lives in Lake Charles. We miss her terribly!!! I miss her so much b/c she taught in Freshman Academy with me, and it's just not the same without her. She has such an amazing personality - she could always put a smile on everyone's face. This place has been much gloomier since she's been gone. But, I'm so excited to go see her in N.O.!!!
Justin has to work this weekend, so that sucks, but Sean and I will find something fun to do hopefully. Sean loves to play outside, but it's been too cold the last few days. It's so much fun watching him learn new things everyday - his vocabulary now includes the following: me, mommy, daddy, mine (his favorite word), juice, banana, Chloe and Dixie (my parents' dogs), cheese, baby, no no, oh no, uh oh, etc. I brought him to the basketball game last week and the cheerleaders were surprised that he was talking now - it was cute. He also went straight from crawling to running it seems. Now he doesn't want to be held anywhere we go - he wants to walk! I'm not quite sure where he got his independent streak and his stubborness from, but I have an idea :) He also has a bit of a temper, and I can't imagine where that came from either!
It appears the heathens have cleared the building somewhat, so I think I'll head out. Hope everyone has a great Friday night.
About Me
- kelli revia mahan
- I am a wife and mother. I am Catholic. Over the past several years, I have found myself becoming a more "liberal" thinker. Not agreeing with many conservative policies, legislation, and decisions makes me neither "unAmerican" nor "unpatriotic". I find it pathetically laughable that individuals are placing the blame for the declining moral climate of our country on gay marriage. I believe that the No Child Left Behind Act is completely unrealistic and destructive to our already weakening public education system. I believe that education should be a privilege rather than a right. I believe in saying ma'am and sir. I believe in saying please, thank you, and you're welcome. I believe in tipping, and tipping well. I do not believe in using the Bible as a means to persecute and discriminate against others. I believe the pen is mightier than the sword. I believe that we should be teaching our youth the dangers of unprotected and unsafe sex, not shielding them from reality. I believe that brunettes have more fun! I believe that LSU in the greatest school in the world - Geaux Tigers :)
