Anxious for summer to end

Well sort of. I am anxious to start working on July 22nd but I am sad that as soon as I start that is less time with my family. And once summer winds down then Chris leaves for Iraq. So it has it's ups and downs. I am already starting to prepare for the school year since I know that I will be teaching ELA and Social Studies for 4th-5th grade. I am trying to find books to buy for the classroom as far as novels for the kids to read and I am trying also to figure out things and get things together so that I am ready to start. I am crazy excited about this and I really really can't wait to start teaching. I'm still waiting for my contract from the school but that will come sometime really soon. At least that is what the headmaster said yesterday.

Chris is in the field and he's actually liking it. Well not liking the being dirty part, but loving learning the equipment that he is now working with. It's all new and high speed so he is all happy about that. It's weird because when I met him he would not work any extra or do anything unless absolutely forced to. Now he stays on and helps his soldiers out after he's off shift. It's quite a change but I really see how mature he has become and how dedicated he is to what he is doing. My heart swells and I am so proud of the man that I married.
