I'm one of the lucky people in the world who is able to partake in multiple jobs & enjoy them all. I'm a third grade teacher and a photographer, and a day rarely goes by when I don't enjoy either. The most exciting part of these two jobs is when the two are able to harmonize.

I've known Nicole for little over a year now--she was the student teacher in the classroom I was an aide in last year, and we ended up being coworkers at the beginning of this year (her as the computer teacher and myself as the basic skills teacher). We've been able to bond over classroom mishaps & a similar sense of humor, and the topic of weddings. I was so excited for her when she came to school one morning and subtly tried to hint at the engagement ring on her finger. Sadly it took me a very long time to realize what her discreet hints were directed towards, but when it finally hit me, I was ecstatic for her.
