I love School! (Good thing I'm going to be a teacher!)

Hello World! Yes I am actually alive, contrary to what people may think! I'm sorry I have kinda fell off the face of the earth, but my life right now is just so busy! (story of my life!) So school is going really great and I absolutely love all of my classes! I am learning so much about how to be a good teacher and the best methods to teach my future students. I don't know why, but learning stuff like this gives me a rush! Anyway I am also doing my practicum in an elementary school in Smithfield. I work in a Kindergarten as the teacher's assistant three days a week. I am there from 7:00 to 4:00 learning how to be a teacher. I help the students, teach reading lessons, lead in daily routines, read to the students, and many other fun things that happen each day in Kindergarten! My favorite thing is when my students run up to me in the halls and and give me a hug and shout "Ms. Mickelsen!" It is the best feeling in the whole world! So along with working at a Kindergarten, full time student, part time job, socializing with friends, being the mom (oh I got a new calling in my ward, I am our Family Home Evening Mom. It is a busy calling, but one of the funnest I have ever had. I gained a husband and 20 kids all in the same day!) my life is going wonderful as ever! I have learned so much being out on my own and in school. I have learned who I am as a person and who I want to become. I have learned what matters most to me in my life and who matters most to me. I have grown so much closer to my Father in Heaven and I have gained an immense passion for gospel and a desire to spread it to the whole world. I am growing up and it is hard to accept that, but I am so grateful for opportunities and special people who have helped me grow up to someone I really want to be and someone I know my Heavenly Father knows I can be! Love to all!
