Strong Woman?...Hell Ya I Am!!!

So....I have been meaning to do this post for myself for awhile now. I read a post awhile ago from a friend that talked about how women in particular feel that they have to fit the "perfect" bill all the time. I for sure fall into this category A LOT!! I want to be the perfect wife, daughter, sister, friend, teacher and the list goes on and on. I sometimes get down on myself when I feel that I am just not cutting it. I was sitting in the tub last night reflecting on all I have been through particulary in the last five years and how it has all brought me to the point I am now in my life. I realized the strong woman that I have always been and are continuing to become! I would do it all over again to have the life I have now! I am so incredibly blessed with an unbelievable husband, family, and friends:) I have watched myself as well as many of my friends go through real heartache in the last few years and I am humbled by all of them and at the strength each of them have and have offered me in the times when I needed it most! So for all you awesome women out there...remember your amazing and strong!!

President's Club Baby!!!!

I just want my hubby to know how proud I am of him! Today he was announced into the President's club over a national sales call as being 5th in the country out of 507 other salesmen in his company! This is such a HUGE accomplishment and he completely deserves it!! He has worked so hard for this over the past couple of years! Thanks for being the the awesome man you are! Enjoy it! I love ya!

My Amazing Class!

I love my little first graders!! I have been so sick since Halloween with bronchitis and literally have zero voice. I have been coming to school to teach even though I can't talk and my kids have been super amazing! They are so caring and talk in a whisper just like me! Everyday they say "Mrs. Dayton, what can we do to help you today?" I truly have the BEST job ever!! I am so grateful for each and every one of my darling kids:) I'm a very LUCKY woman to have the opportunity to teach them!
