School's Out For Summer!

Nothing beats the last day of school. Those of you who know me know that having to say goodbye to a wonderful group of kids, even though I wasn't there the whole year, was nothing less than a tearful celebration! While the school is home to a very talented group of educators, it is truly the students who make teaching there an unbelievable opportunity. Of course the downside to international teaching is watching the students and teachers come and go year after year, which again for me is so hard to handle. I don't think that I have enough tears to choose a life of international teaching, but it is a wonderful experience that many of my very talented colleagues from Pearland and Mobile should definitely investigate!

Well, that is about all I have done since my last post! Being pregnant and working has taken every once of energy I have. On the weekends, Michael and I hang out at the pool and SLEEP! We are now at 16.5 weeks! I can hardly believe how quickly the time has passed.

The American Embassy of Qatar had an American Independence Day celebration on June 4 (instead of July because most of the Americans are gone in July). That was a lovely evening that we were fortunate to be part of!









Michael is currently in the states and I leave on Saturday! I can hardly wait! Of course that means that it is also time for Macey to pack up and go to Aunt Shelli's house! Shelli LOVES cats and Macey knew it instantly and felt very comfortable staying there for the month until Michael returns.

We are looking forward to seeing many of you very soon!
