Back to School!

It is so good to be back at school! Back to work and a regular routine. I missed the kids and staff so very much. Plus I think I am much less "Needy" as a wife now that I am not home all day on my own. :)



The kids are finally falling into a routine and it feels good for all of us. A big change for me was finding my new identity here at school as "Mrs. Jacobson." The kids have already gotten used to it for the most part. Although I sometimes feel like a split personality., being called "Miss Duchemin" in the bathroom/hallway by a student from last year and then "Mrs. Jacobson" in my classroom by this year's students. But I love it! I am truly a Mrs. and get to hear it everyday.



I just started Jazzercise with some young ladies from my small group and it is so much fun! I am really excited. However, it does remind me of my pageant days and how "not a dancer" I really am.



Ben and I moved furniture this weekend and worked around the house, we've started attending a small group in our neighborhood and are having so much fun meeting the people in our community.

We are looking for some more consistent work for Ben and maybe something with benefits. It's amazing what becomes important when you are a "grown up." :) If you know of something, let me know!



Life truly is falling into a wonderful routine with fun surprises here and there. I am looking forward to the pageant season as I plan to do some judging in the Miss America Outstanding Teen program this year - let me know if you need a judge. I've also been keeping up with Janet (Our Miss Washington 2008) and her schedule. She truly is a remarkable woman. It means so much to continue to be a part of this incredible organization.
