Hey there!


Welcome to Mrs Newman's First!

I've stalked so many blogs that I felt it was only fair to let you all know I exist. I've been inspired by so many people that are so brilliant, and I only hope to inspire someone else. Join me here to talk about learning, loving, and laughing with my little friends in first.

A little about me, if you're interested:

I student taught in first in 2009. I covered an end-of year position in first in 2010, and taught my first full year in Kindergarten 2010-11. 

I'm headed into my first full year of first and I'm nervous, excited, and most of all, OVERWHELMED!
But I know for sure that I wouldn't want to do ANYthing else!

I love my husband, my dog, diet soda, and *almost* anything chocolatey. (I didn't think you could ruin chocolate, but I have learned otherwise.) 

I'm a born and bred Yankee trying her hardest to be a Southern Belle. 

I use too many exclamation points... and dot dot dots!

I hoard free fonts and look for free clipart, but my ancient computer won't hold it all.

I hate to write with any pencil that isn't a Papermate SharpWriter. You know, the kind where you twist the point to make more lead come out?


More seriously, Mr. Newman and I got married in 2009, bought our first car in 2010, and bought a house and adopted a dog in 2011. We can't wait to see what else God has in store for us, because He's already taken our wildest dreams and hit them out of the park.

It is so nice to meet you, new friend! I hope you'll keep coming back to visit!
