About Me

My photo
Where do I begin? I guess At the beginning! I live in beautiful Tasmania, Australia with my wonderful hubby, Matthew and our four angels (part time devils) Isaac, Reuben, Isabella, and Charlotte. Currently I'm a stay-at-home mum and I absolutely love that. Nothing else compares. I'm also studying the Master of Teaching part-time and I'm serving as the relief society president of our ward. I love being outside, especially in summer. I love big windows & lots of light. I love swimming, running and mowing the lawn! my favourite vegetable is carrots (or potatoes if mum's baked them) and I love fresh fruit salad. My most favourite thing to do is spend time with my precious family.

Two down...

...only 14 to go!  At this rate I might just finish before I need the aid of a walker!


















I am really loving this course (Master of Teaching).  I am half way through my first PE (professional experience) and it has been lots of fun.  The kids in the 5/6 class I am in are exceptional.  They're all so well behaved and respectful and very capable.  I think this would be the 'dream school' for any teacher.  It is very similar to the school our kids attend, so it feels very familiar.  I have also realised that I have an advantage over the childless students who are all very tired after a busy week in the classroom.  I, on the other hand, feel as if I'm on a break!  
All of my assignments are done, just one exam, on June 6th, and that's first semester in the bag.  Feels good to know that I still have what it takes.

Yay! Good for you Blanche. You'll probably keep wanting to learn more and more so will end up with three or four degrees under your belt. You rock :)
