Life is a Box of Chocolates

Well my life is so SWEET right now. Everyday I think how blessed I am. At Christmas Tyler and I recieved money from his family and my family. We were trying to decide if we should buy one big thing with it or if we should split the money. Well I decided that I would save that money and my birthday money and take a Ceramics class. So I am just going in on my free time making pots! It is so nice to be back in the mud.
I am still working with the Post High Special needs students at a local High school. I really enjoy it and I am disovering so many new things about myself. I love working with them and am laughing everyday. Such as......yesterday one of the students, who also has Down Syndrome, was sitting outside on a bench just by himself enjoying the sunshine. One of the students went outside and got some snow, went and sat down by the other student and put it down the back of his shirt. Well the one receiving the chilly gift just got it out of his shirt and I thought he was going to give a friendly punch to the other boy. Well before I knew it the one with Downs gave the other one a huge hug!!! I just laughed so hard and I thought how sweet that was! They all are so great and I love getting to know them all better.
Also Tyler went home teaching last week. Well when he was making the appointment he found out that this family watches "lost." People keep asking me and Tyler if we watch the show which we didn't until this family let us borrow Season 1 and now we are hooked. We are almost done with the second season. We will be caught up before we know it. It's like every night we have "date night" with each other just watching "Lost" just the two of us. And if any of you have seen it I don't want to hear anything about it, specifics I mean. I have already had a few things ruined for me.
It seems like my life is really balanced lately. It is so nice to feel like I have some control in my life. I love it.
