Hey all,
I just took a new job. I will be working as a teacher's aid at a nearby school. Considering the school year has already started, I am grateful for the opportunity just to get my foot in the door. I will be starting this new position on the 24th of September, and I am looking forward to it. Todd is back in full swing at the college breaking in the new group of freshman. They did not know what they were getting themselves into when they signed up for CrispSimons' class. I do not feel sorry for them though, they need to start putting all that money to good use. Might as well break them in right. Just kidding, I have actually met some of Todd's old students, they all have great things to say about him. He really enjoys his job. I am hoping that I will enjoy my new career just as much. One benefit is that I will be able to spend more time with Todd and Emerson. Instead of getting off of work at 5 or 5:3o, and picking Emerson up at close to 6, I will be able to pick him up around 4. That leaves me a lot more time to make baby food. Just kidding. I am looking forward to the hours though.
Emerson has to little teeth now. His bottom teeth have come through. He is getting around good, but he is not up on his hands and knees, it is more of an army crawl. All is well, and he is almost 9 months old now. Boy he sure is getting tall. We will get his stats at his 9 month wellness visit to the dr's.
All is well here, hope the same is true wherever this note finds you.
I said in my heart, "I am sick of four walls and a ceiling. I have need of the sky. I have business with the grass." -Richard Hovey
A moody child and wildly wise
Pursued the game with joyful eyes,
Which chose, like meteors, their way,
and rived the dark with private ray
They overleapt the horizon's edge,
Searched with Apollos privilege;
Through man, and woman, and sea, and star.
Saw the dancer of nature forward far,
Through worlds, and races, and terms, and times
Saw a musical order, and pairing rhymes.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Kiah's Birthday Party
On May 10th we drove to Chattanooga for our friends' babies first birthday party. Emerson had a great time. They had a baby pool and a slip and slide. Our other friend David was there with his twins. Daniel and Olivia played with Emerson in the baby pool. I think Emerson really liked having kids his size to play with.
Getting ready for more.

Well, I have resurfaced. It has been a long time.
Emerson has recently found a love for trains. Choo Choo is his favorite word. That and he likes to quack like a duck. Todd and I took Emerson to see this train caboose. It is parked in Clemson University's botanical garden.

Horray for you!!! How exciting!! I hope you like it. Maybe next year you can get a regular teaching position. Does this mean you will have the summer off? And Christmas break??? Yippee for Stacy!!!
Super cute pictures of Emerson. I can't believe how big he is getting. He looks so big.
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! Looks like a new adventure is on the horizon. Now you both can come home and talk about the kids and kid. By the way, Emerson looks like a completely different baby. He is soooooo much bigger. I was just down there a few months ago, that homemade baby food must be freakin' full of something nurtrious. Glad your not feeding me. I am glad to hear everything is well. You three take care and give each other hugs and give Emerson a big ol' wet kiss for me. Miss you guys and hope to see all THREE of you in October.
Can I see a picture of the whole house? -- I don't think the small picture is doing the green color justice....
