As most of you know, Misty started her first teaching job this year as a first grade teacher. Misty has been working very hard as she has to develop lesson plans and learn the ropes of the new school system in her first year of teaching. She often works on school work in the evenings and during the weekends to make sure everything runs smooth for the next lessons. Misty took the job after the school year already started and had to win over parents who were angry that their kids had to change classrooms due to over-enrollment. We all knew she would win them over, and she has, but it was no easy task.
Despite the challenges, Misty manages to achieve balance in her life and take time to take care of the kids and I. Though sometimes they complain, the kids have benefited from having a teacher in the house who carefully scrutinizes all of their homework assignments and performance reviews to ensure they are doing the best they can do.
Misty also played fantasy football with me this season, and handed me a defeat that eliminated me from the competition and now she is a couple games from winning the league. Turns out that I am the real winner, though, as her interest in football has skyrocketed as a result and now she is the one insisting we make time to watch the games on TV. hehehehe....my plan worked perfectly.
