My Name is Auntie Chelle!

Thank you to Stacey, Betsy, Dana, Tara, Beth, & Anna for this amazing platform to write and share writing! What a wonderful community you've created! I'm honored to be part of it. Join us at Two Writing Teachers. 

In school, I'm known as Ms. Haseltine. When I am home with my family, I'm Auntie Chelle.

It's so much fun being Auntie Chelle! I get to be silly and laugh. I have interesting conversations. I make silly faces.

I play games. I go on adventures! I act as a jungle gym.

Monday night I got to take a car ride and see Christmas lights!

I was flabbergasted with the amazing lighting displays! After, we stopped at a family favorite, The Pizza Shop, for a cheesy concoction! Mmmm!! While we waited for our food, we practiced our writing...

Jack is writing in my notebook.

"See what I wrote, Auntie Chelle?"

Jillian can write words too!

Here are some of the words that Jack knows already!

 Today Jillian and I get to spend some time together! YAY!

We are so excited!

Celebrating This Week

I love celebrating on Saturday mornings! Thank you to Ruth for providing a place to celebrate. Join us here. 

This week I celebrate Christmas socks. Wearing Christmas socks makes me happy...they put me in the holiday mood.

I celebrate finding just the right gift for my family and friends. Inspiration came late this year, but I feel like I've found some meaningful and fun gifts for those I love. 

I celebrate Bella and her new bed. I finally found one that she likes. 

I celebrate slowing down as much as I can. This month can get chaotic and crazy, but I'm working hard on staying focused on being calm and thoughtful. 

I celebrate a new One Little Word. I think I may have a new word picked out, but I am open to suggestions. Past words include: mettle, engage, embrace, build, author, and risk. For more information about One Little Word, click here. 

What are your celebrations today?
