What a week!  I have been so tired for so long...and I don't know when I will ever have time to catch up on sleep!

RA/CA Selection weekend went very well.  There was only one snaffoo, but it was quickly dealt with.  I was at work from 8:30-5:30 Saturday and from 12:30-9:00 Sunday.  It was exhausting work but thankfully it only happens twice a year!  We did our make-up process Tuesday afternoon and were finished by 6:30.  Tomorrow we have our draft where we decide who will be hired.  I can't wait for it to be over!!  You can't imagine the time and preparation that goes into a process like this.  It is a BIG job! 

It isn't as big a job as birthin' a baby though!!  Congratulations Jason and Cathy on your precious little Annabelle.  She is so pretty! 

I have had a conference today and tomorrow.  ArCPA.  It has it's fun moments, but mostly it is business stuff.  I have had a difficult time staying awake on and off throughout the day.  It's a good thing they kept the Convocation Center at a balmy 46 degrees!  The frigid temps kept me awake!  Seriously though--it has been a good conference and it gets me more contacts throughout the state.

Late in the afternoon I got an email telling me I am to take lead on our spring semester training.  What?!  I asked a month ago!!  Now I have less than two months to plan this week long training.  I got the email moments before attending a breakout session on fun  training ideas, so I guess the timing was good!

I am really into the groove of work now and I am happy to be making a difference so early in my career here. 

Keali has started saying, "Mammy, I miss yewww."  It is so cute but I don't really think she does.  She really wants little to do with me...she has turned into a Daddy's Girl. 

Heath and I attended Kalyn's parent/teacher conference earlier in the week.  We got a large stack of her artwork and got to see where she stands developmentally.  She is doing really well!  There were three sections on her chart where she was scored at a 1, and a 2.  I was so upset that her scores were so low--I know she can do the things being tested.  Then I realized that in those cases the lower the score, the better.  I knew it all along.  My daughter is a genius.  And now more of the world knows it!!

No surprise to anyone who has met Kalyn--socially she is doing very well.  "She is not shy at all," said her teacher Mrs. Anna.  Kalyn likes to talk and tell stories.  She does have a problem sharing, but what almost 4 year old doesn't?  Especially if they have a little sibling with whom they are expected to share?!  In all I left the meeting feeling certain that Kalyn's portrait will someday grace the halls of that pre-school as being the brightest pupil to have ever attended.  She really is a genius.  And it was nice to hear that she does more than "eat, and rest, and play."
