So I was walking my fifth graders to the restroom after recess today, and one of my kids, a boy, kept saying, "Ms. Hebert!".....
...."Ms. Hebert. Ms. Hebert. Ms. Hebert. Ms. Hebert! Ms. Hebert!"....
So I put my arm around his shoulder and said, "What?"
His reply? "Hi."
I then asked him if he watched Family Guy.
He said "Yeah!" and then he turned to his friend and said, "How did she know?"
Oh, I know, my boy. I know my Family Guy.

Changes
A month since my last post! Either I'm a slacker or it's been a busy month! Yeah, it's been a BUSY month!
Too much has happened for me to try and cram it into one post, so I'm going to cover the highlights now and get more detailed next week when I don't have anything to do!
The biggest thing to happen in the past month has been the birth of my nephew, Mr. Parker Wayne Hebert. He was born twelve days early (due date 3/18, born 3/6) and is absolutely perfect! He is a hairy little guy and looks exactly like his daddy. We've gotten a lot of comments on how beautiful he is, even for a newborn, and I must agree. I have the honor of being his Godmother and I am so excited about this! I'm taking a class this Sunday to prepare myself for his Baptism. It is definitely a gift to live with new parents and a new baby...I am getting so much insight on what to do and what not to do, how new babies work, things like breastfeeding, sleep habits, etc. This will come in handy when I'm a momma :) It is also helping me to see the reality of being a new parent and how much a baby changes your life. I know for sure that I have a lot of living to do before I settle down, marry, and raise kids. I know that I'm called to marriage and to a family, but I've been very blessed with singleness and the option to go wherever I want and explore, and I want to take advantage of that!
The next big thing was the freaking AWESOME cruise I went on for Spring Break. Pilar and two of her friends from high school, Travis and Chris, and I went on a seven day Caribbean cruise. We drove to Miami and stopped at the Cayman Islands, Mahogany Bay off Honduras, Belize, and Cozumel. It was the best week of my life and the people I went with were what made the trip, for sure. I really want to write down all of the details to share and so that I will remember them so I'm going to do day by day posts next week (when I'm FINISHED with my student teaching and have a little more free time!) So get excited for that :)
Those were the exciting things that have happened. The not-so-exciting thing is the job situation on my horizon. We had our career fair today at A&M and, although I feel like I made good connections with some school districts, I couldn't help but be upset at the economical situation right now and at the gloomy mood that was floating around Reed Arena. I was looking at all of the girls I have moved through my education classes at A&M with who are all so talented and thinking about how sad it is that we're in such dire straights concerning jobs. I have faith that God has a plan for me and that I'll be taken care of, but it's hard not knowing what that plan is. Regardless, I'm going to make the most of my last few days with my precious students and enjoy these next few months that I have off/fill out job applications during that time.
I promise I won't wait another month to post again, but it may be a week. Until next time!
