The Singhanart Family
12/27/12
Wow! It has been a very long time since I last blogged!
I think the biggest news is that we FINALLY moved out! We searched for 11 months for a house to buy, however God slammed that door and locked it with about a million locks. We had 6 different houses we were interested in and they all fell through for various reasons. However, some friends in our small group found a house, bought it, and closed in 3 weeks. Then, we found out they would be renting out their old place, which is 3 miles from my parents' house. That makes it very convenient with my mom watching Kelsey. We were very thankful for all the help my parents provided us, but we were also thrilled to be moving into our own place at the end of July 2012.
Arm has been working at Gordmans as a full time lead over the men's department for about a year. We were very excited about this as we have enjoyed him having steady hours at work and at home. We get to spend more time as a family since he only has one job and he is working at a place where he is respected and has friends. It has been a wonderful transition and has made it a lot easier with me studying and teaching and taking care of Kelsey.
Danelle is still teaching, but is no longer at two schools. This school year, I was able to move to Winchester Elementary and I work with kindergarten students. I have about 20 kindergarten students that I teach every day and I have about 10 others that I help once a week because their English was pretty good when they arrived. It has been so wonderful to focus on one grade level and only plan one lesson for every day instead of teaching kindergarten through 5th and planning 4 or 5 lessons every day. We have really enjoyed a brief break from my studies as scheduling would have it. However, I have to begin my last class on January 31st. I will be writing a 40 page paper and will be completed on May 18. Pray for our family as my studies bring an added stress to all of us. We are very excited for my graduation and to put this behind us!
Kelsey is our sweet little girl! She is now 19.5 months old. She is talking more and more everyday and I have lost count of how many words she says! She is nicknamed Ms. Hospitality at our church because she says hi and bye to everyone she passes. She brings many smiles to everyone she passes whether we're at church or out shopping. She loves playing with baby dolls, reading books, watching Elmo and cuddling with mommy and her blankie :D.
I truly apologize for not blogging for quite some time and I hope it will never be this long again before I update everyone. I pray everyone had a Merry Christmas celebrating the birth of our Saviour Jesus Christ. May God bless you all.
