New Job

Sorry for not many updates...I tell you - being newlyweds with 2 teenage children is quite taxing! We are now back home from staying with Simon and Rebekah Oosthuizen for 3 weeks. Neil and Colleen had a fun time in Egypt, Jerusalem, Jordan, etc. but they were glad to get home. After 3 weeks of more driving and carpooling than we've done EVER Mark and I came home and pretty much slept the day away on Sunday. We have a new appreciation of our home and having our own space.

Well, most of you have probably heard by now that I have a job!! YEA!! I will be teaching 3 classes of 8th grade Math and 2 classes of something else - not sure exactly what. I am taking a part time teacher's job, but with a full time position, so they are creating 2 classes for me from other classes. It will probably still be Math, but it might be 9th grade or something. If you want to look at the school's website, you can see it at www.northcliffhigh.co.za I"ll try to take pictures sometime because the website doesn't really do it justice. It's kind of neat - there are a few teachers there that taught John, Mark, and Belinda - so I am already hearing interesting stories... I formally start on June 1, but I will just be helping with exams and marking the exams after they are finished. I will be teaching beginning on July 16 after mid-year break.

I think that is all the news I have for now. Hope everyone is doing well, and I'll try to do a better job of keeping this site updated. Love to all!!!

Tagged...

So, I've been tagged by Kim to tell why I blog. Well, I was asked by Suzanne to start blogging so that we could keep up with each other a bit better. It has been really cool to see what Kim and Suzanne have been up to since the wedding. I hope others (like Fran :-) ) start to blog soon.
