Props to my amazing students!

This should have been done a long time ago, I just haven't had the time. My students are amazing. I teach 7th grade Life Science and my 5 classes of students raised almost $900 for the American Lung Association to support me! They rock! Thank you so much! I hope you are all having a wonderful summer! I can't wait to hear about your adventures next fall. Don't forget to come visit me. Everyone loves your jersey that you all signed. It really gets me by on rough days with all your wonderful encouraging words on it. I wil post pictures of me wearing it as soon as I get to a computer again that lets me. THANK YOU!

You are so amazing. I keep looking at the mileage numbers you are banging out and it blows my mind- you rock!!!

Thinking of you and wishing for sunny skies, tail winds, and short mountains...

I hope your sit bones are feeling better. Try your best to rest and heal. I got to hold baby Adam yesterday. He's super cute, looks just like Jack. I told Jack he should take a picture of himself on his tricycle and post it on Lisa's blog. Totem and the plants are alive and well. Totem's still shy, but he's ok. Enjoy the rest days. Almost through with Montana, right?
Have fun!
