9:00 Blessings

WARNING: THIS POST COULD BE A BIT JUMBLED OF THOUGHTS & EMOTIONS =)!

*I want to first THANK each of you for your words of wisdom and prayers for Vance! He had a great day at Ms. Charlene's house yesterday and an even better night. After a fabulous dinner and a tubby, Vance decided he want to "read" books for about an hour.


Notice how he is so "in tuned" with the book! I apologize for my lovely pajamas...I hit relax mode when I know I am in for a night!

I gave him some teething tablets around 8:30 and at 9:00 he looked a little like this...


How I wish I could sleep like this!!!

Vance had a fabulous night of sleep and woke up in the best mood. I know that we are not 100% out of the woods from teething, but at least I do know what MIGHT work best.

Here are just a few more thoughts I would like to touch on this morning...

* The Lady Vols beat Texas A & M last night to make it to the Final Four!!!! They will play LSU (a BIG SEC Rival) on Sunday to go to the Championship. How I love March Madness!!!


GO LADY VOLS!!!!

* American Idol was fabulous last night! Dolly Parton just makes me smile with her honest, Southern charm!!!! I still adore Brooke and I always anticipate what kind of arrangement David Cook will do. He is so talented and has such great musicality!

* I have been completely touched this morning after reading two blogs: Bring On The Rain & Horton Happenings. THANK YOU Angie & Leigh Ann for opening your lives and hearts to all of us bloggers. I am so happy I started blogging (thank you Lena) and already feel like I am a better person from learning from all of you.

* I HAVE GREAT NEWS!!!! No, I am not pregnant, but I am so happy and so proud! As you all know, my husband is a Geometry Teacher & Golf Coach at RHS (my alma mater)! This is his third year there. While he has enjoyed his experience and has made some great friends, he has been a bit desolate in the "truly loving his job" feeling. Web actually went to college to get a degree in engineering, but felt his heart belonged in a classroom. Ultimately, he has always wanted to teach CAD Classes at a high school level but never had the opportunity. I have been checking the Rutherford County Schools web-site daily to see if any CAD posting popped up, and you know what, ONE DID!!! Oakland High School (Web's alma mater) is looking for a CAD Teacher. I immediately called Web and told him to call Butch (the principal, a good friend, and Web has worked with him before). Web called him last night, left a message, got at a call at 7:30 this morning, and Butch said this, "Web, find out what you need to do for certification and the job is YOURS!" If you can't tell, I am really excited. There is so much more to this story that I will share later, but I just want to say this:

GOD IS GOOD!


I LOVE THIS MAN!!!!
