Hello on this drizzly Iowa winter day... :)

I am on the downhill side of my graduate coursework now and I am happy about that and also thankful for all of the learning I have acquired.  That's called knowledge, correct?

I have gained so much in the way of best practice, collaborative techniques, and technological skills.  The classmates I have interacted with have helped to hone my thinking and philosophies.  For this, I am thankful, too!

Soon, I will have to reintroduce myself to my husband of 30 years and see where we want to go this summer to get reacquainted.  It has been an intense 3 years.

Looking forward to graduation in May! :)  I will hopefully earn my MAT (Masters of Arts in Teaching), an ELL endorsement, and a TAG endorsement.  The Masters and TAG endorsement are coming from Morningside College and the ELL endorsement comes from William Penn University.  This will be a total of 54 graduate hours in about 3 years time!
