My School Age Program Kids

Hi all these are only a few pics that I have of kids from the School Age Program. My favorite kids are the younger ones but they are all good kids. The little ones really make my job exciting! I'll post more soon...

This is me and my lil gal Kirra, I started out working with the kindergardeners and I miss them so much. Now I work with the big kids 9-12, I still see my lil ones but not as much. Maybe they will switch me LOL :) Soon I'll put pics up of the the Big Kids Area the room where I work. Oh yeah the board that I'm on is Lemon board, I guess they thought it was funny. :) I haven't gotten July approved yet but hopefully with prayers it'll come through. Josh has started working again, he's doing great. He will be going on TDY back to the states from May 14-June 14th and hopefully July will be when we can go home!!! Then in August and September Josh will be deploying so ughh we'll see what happens!
God Bless everyone we love u all!!

Canceled Leave
We are not able to go home now for May. Josh has a test for staff and they won't reschedule it. If he misses it he won't be able to test till next year and it takes a year after the test to actually be considered staff for some reason. So now we are thinking of later in the year, I know it sucks but only 2 more yrs of this military life style then we'll be able to see fam and friends whever we want. So now I might be able to start this term for college but we'll see. Anywho sorry for the sucky news everyone. I love you all.
God Bless

Updates, I guess :)
Hi all. Lets see what can I update ya'll on? Josh's surgery went well, he's walking around and enjoying his 3 weeks off. It's funny how the roles have reversed. He's at home and I'm getting up early going to work :)!

Work is going well. There's alot of drama that goes on but I'm doing my best to disassociate myself with it and just do my job. I just took my first test on my modules that I have to do for work and I hope that I did well. I enjoy working with the children, they give me pictures that they drew all the time and I like talking to them. The stress is overwelming somtimes and I think I'm going to see how the summer goes then I might get a transfer to the elemntry school as a teacher assistant. Less stress I think. But anywho I put in my leave for the month of May and it was approved so we are just waiting for Joshs leave to be approved. I'm so excited to go home for a whole month.

I'm also hoping to start college next term after we come back from visiting home. I'll probably start in August. It's real expensive over here and I don't know if I'll be able to finish my Assocites Degree for General Curriclum in 1yr 5 months but I guess I can finish when we move to Champaign, IL. My 1st class will probably be LIBS150:

Information Literacy and Research Methods (1 s.h.)

An introduction to the research process and methods for retrieving information in a library or through online sources. Development of a research topic and the creation of effective strategies for finding relevant information are discussed and practiced. The following information literacy skills are emphasized: understanding the research process; selecting appropriate print and electronic sources to answer research questions; effectively using Web search engines and UMUC Information and Library Services' electronic resources to find information; and evaluating, organizing, and correctly citing the information found.

Anywho thats about all I have for ya'll for now. I love you all :)
God Bless

My review
I'm really humbled by this book. Her journey during the war is truly and inspiration to life. I now look around while I'm driving or walking on Okinawa and think to myself of the struggles that so many Okinawan refugees went through, including the author as a 7 year old child! Defiantly an inspirational read!
