As most of you know, my (Dan) last school year was pretty rough. I was unprepared and had no idea what was about to happen to me. Well the next year is now underway. We've only been in school for 2 days, but the kids have already tried to hit/kick me and have destroyed the room a few times. To my utter surprise I have been able to handle this much better than last year. I came home from work on Friday and I wasn't crying! I was able to let a lot roll off my back and Sarah and I went out to celebrate/mourn the end of summer :(
This year I'm starting off with 7 students, 4 first graders and 3 second graders. I've actually got two girls this year, which is a bit different for me (last year I only had one girl and she didn't start until March!).

This is my class from last year (2010). They were amazing and really gave me a run for my money! |
Sarah and I had a great first summer together. We went on a few trips with friends, we've participated in two Calvin Alumni gatherings and have had regular visits from some much beloved dogs. Unfortunately, there aren't any recent pictures of us together:( Hopefully we'll be ordering some wedding pictures soon and can upload some of those.
Yo, Mr. Draeger! Where the Dominican at on this map?
