Halloween is over, does that mean it is time to start the Christmas commercials. Sure enough first one spotted on November 1. I miss Thanksgiving. No decorations. No Christmas music until after Thanksgiving. (I guess I have to make an exception to piano practicing. Ashley's recital piece is Christmas.)

This is one of my favorite things. I love when I was growing up and hearing the bells ring every fifteen minutes. I miss that.

The homemaker has the ultimate career. All other careers exist for one purpose only- and that is to support this ultimate career. "

C. S. Lewis

I found this quote today as I was cleaning out my junk at school. I remember when I was choosing a career I thought that I was just going to be a mom, so the best thing I could learn in college was how to be a better mom. I thought graduating in Family and Consumer Science was going to teach me everything I needed to know to be a mom. Well, I am just starting my 21st year as a teacher. My choice in career is strange because I thought I was choosing the ultimate career. I guess I am just supporting that ultimate career by teaching kids to be a homemaker. Now if I could just be brave enough to quit teaching and take on the ultimate career!
