i wonder what Eminem's belly laugh sounds like. i mean.. he must have one, right? he's just always so terminally serious... you have to wonder if stuff has ever come out of his nose.

i was a little down earler today but the day has actually shaped up rather well. i got some AMAZING news yesterday and it was busting inside me to come out. when i came home, however, the power went out. when i came home. seriously. i walked through the door to the kitchen- POWER OUT. dad thought i had tunrned the lights off and was really starting to get mad when i pointed out that the whole street was dark. so anyway... didnt get to share my good news then, and kendra wasnt home, and eric was with rob and didnt get in until late and i was faaaaaaast asleep and missed his good night call.
but i told phyllis, my director of early childhood ed today. can i just say how lovely she is? (i think im her favorite! hahaha!) she gave me a big hug!
so the good news? my co-teacher where i student teach in wellesley, who is never impressed with anyone in her 18 years of teaching, went is going to the director at the school to recommend me for a position. AMAZING! i mean... we're talking high profile school here, and i love love love it! i'd be subbing next semester, and then once i get my degree hopefully i can get a full time position there. i cant imagine-- im too happy to hope! hopefully i'd get to stay in infant one or two, im really enjoying my time in infant one. joshua just started crawling! Carloline wasnt far behind, and they now seem to have regular races and like to roll over each other. they're both 9 months. Elliot is 7 months, and is just the cutest little guy. Alexandra is also 7 months and when she smiles youre absolutely helpless to do anything but smile back. i love to push her in the swing, it doesnt matter if she's been on it all day she gives this little scream and her face lights up. And then theres Ross... the cutest little boy you ever did see. he's just barely 4 months and like to throw up regularly. luckily he's so adorable, and so cuddly! if my mind wanders or i get sad i always know i can pick him up, tuck his little head under mine, and rock back and forth. i think its equally soothing for both of us. not that im ever really sad there-- when i walk through the door theres nothing but the sweetness of the children to greet me.

so thats the run down of where i work. eric will be over soon, and i'll get to show him all the pictures ive taken and assembled in a scrapbook.
