Finally, we've moved in and we're slowly settling in.thanks to our awesome friends - we were able to move everything in one day and even have the kitchen all set up!It's been a crazy Christmas time - full of stress... I wish I could say that it ended wonderfully, but it just ended. It's a long story - I'm just sooo thankful that God carried me and my family through it and that He is still

I'm back on here. I was wondering if I cold hold out and come back exactly a year from my last post but I guess I just have to share...So a year has gone by and I'm not sure if anyone will read this because I'm sure I no longer have a single soul checking this blog...Some major changes: we've sold our first home and we've bought a new "townhome"- it's in a great town and we love it but it needs

opps...i never mentioned that baby j was born on oct 13.well there you go.. he's here andwe've been busy.I guess I could tell you all the details of the birth and his first 5 weeks of life... but what is there to say? the labor process is painful... the healing process is not fun either and baby j is amazing. (despite the fact that he was jaundiced and has cradle cap and baby acne... he's still

bedrest... an interesting thing... what does it really mean? well, I've been on "bedrest" since Thursday... dr called while i was at the Yankee game. Hmmm... well, I admit I'm not the best at following directions but i stayed home all day on friday and today. Saturday I left for only a few hours because we had no power and I left on Sunday because there was just so much going on and I didn't want

10 more weeks to go...can you believe it? baby ahn will be here by then and we still don't have a crib.. yikes! and the bedroom is still not painted... uh oh...this morning babyahn was all over the place - moving and kicking... I think he was having fun, trying to wake me up. =P But I'm glad he's a morning baby rather than an evening one... he'll be right on schedule with ja and me.I guess this

What do you do when you see a friend who needs more and more of Jesus and yet he/she is not doing anything about it? I wish and I pray that I could refresh their souls for them... that I could pour the Holy Word into their hearts and minds and they would feel His presence, love and care. I guess in reality I wish I could do that to myself sometimes.But no relationship is like that... I can't

This is strange for me.. I woke up at 3:47am and I was thirsty. So I drank some water and icouldn't fall back asleep. So I stayed in bed for awhile and prayed for as many things as I could think of and I still couldn't sleep. JA turned on the AC thinking maybe it's too hot - but that didn't help either. On top of it all, I was hungry - so I decided to just get up and eat cereal.ugh. but it's 4:

Above all things, we are so thankful and blessed to be alive and well. So we praise God!This was a crazy weekend indeed.It all started Thursday night when we were driving home from a friend's house. JA was driving and heading southbound on the SMP when a HUGE raccoon decided to race across the parkway. JA thought he could swerve around it and did but then swerved back so we wouldn't end up on the

Well, I guess I'm consistent - it's been another month since my last blog and now everyone knows... we're having a baby! my students know and they are making lists of baby names for out little one. =) It's cute and amusing to see what they think is a good name for the baby.We're almost at 5 months and I can't really hide the belly anymore. People still say that I look small but I feel pretty big.

Isn't it amazing that you could be feeling great and then people say things that all of a sudden make you think otherwise?I cough and then I hear..."Oh, you should go home""you should horrible""maybe you have bronchitis?""you don't want that to turn into pneumonia?"ACK! and I thought I was getting better...then my mom said she had a dream about me but it was bad and she won't tell me the details.

I'm sick and it stinks...It amazing to know that even in my weakness literally that God still speaks to me and through me... I think that God is truly amazing and that all the things that happen in our lives are part of His amazing plan.I'm so thankful for my mom... she made mee-yuk gook... yummy. I get to rest up and eat it tonight and I don't have to make dinner. =)I wish this cold would go

my vacation is half over already... can you believe it? well... it always happens this way... time flies and i still have papers to grade and lessons to plan and books to read. ugh. it's so easy to waste time and watch tv all day.so perhaps today I will try to not turn the tv on at all. i know it's possible... then I'll get some work done. =)yesterday, my MIL arrived safely home. =) the news is

I have rearranged parts of the closet, cleaned out tupperware and sorted them on a new storage thing we bought, after i dry all the tupperware and wash the dishes - then maybe i'll do some work... it's amazing how time flies when you're doing nothing important at all!i hope get

how many ways can I procrastinate? It's 8:55a.m. and it's still snowing... will we have church? and I still have a 5 page paper due on Thursday that I don't want to do at all.

Do you ever feel like all your words are all jumbled up?I'm so pooped from the crazy weekend and the pressures of class that I can't seem to keep my brain in one place...I'm jumping from thought to thought and yet I'm so tired too. I decided to give myself a break from thinking and I watched Oprah for an hour today. Faith Hill and Tim McGraw were on - they're so cute. I want to see them in

I am standing in the lobby of the school an hour after the power failure and we still have school... with no lights.Absolutely insane... so we begin our day with little power (the emergency generator kicked in - cafeteria, auditorium and several bathrooms

ever thought you knew what you wanted and then... things somehow change?well, it just goes to show you that you'll never know what God has in store and that all things must be done prayerfully... it's all about His timing and that we can plan forever but in the end - He knows best and He is in control.so I pray that as life changes in various ways that I may be more prayerful about things that i

I had an idea about what to write today - but I just lost it... duh....oh well... this weekend was a blessing indeed - NHF had an informal praise night after an incredibly long week.

so you want the update...my mtg with the superintendent went fine... he showed up 30 minutes late and barely spoke of my lesson... that's fine I guess - he'll see the lesson on Friday. But we were talking about where I'm from - and he said...

Here's what I'm thinking about on the eve of the first day back...What can you make with extra hot dog buns and a LOT of them?How DO you know when a hot dog is cooked when it's boiling? How long is too long? Or is it never too long? How can I eat hot dogs for two weeks until they're all gone? Maybe we should have a NHF hot dog eating contest...that'll get rid of 'em...just kidding. =)in all

I am amazed to know that a God so great could love me so...The last few days have been a non stop whirlwind but I praise God because I know that He has given me the strength to endure and persevere.I am so thankful that I live close to home - to my parents, that is... especially at times like this when mom is sickly... she seems to finally be getting some rest.

I haven't written since last year... and it's already half way through January.. but I had to write today - Priase God for this amazing weekend. I am so blessed to be in the company of brillant, God-fearing women. It is so sweet to be in His presence wrapped in His arms. There is no one stronger or more careful over you mind, heart and soul. Therefore, we honor and glorify HIM. As I led worship

Man, my fingers are weak and my apologies to all the NHF PT members - especially the guitarists - I never realized what I was doing to your fingers when I said "Hear our praises" 1000 times or Kingdom song just as many times.... my apologies to your fingers...

It's been a month since I've last blogged... sorry to all you who faithfully check my blog... There isn't much to say... T&T's wedding was last weekend and she was so beautiful!! Now they're happily in Aruba...hopefully soaking up the sun and relaxing - they deserve it! It was quite a job coordinating for their wedding - but it was fun and I'm glad I did it! Next wedding...

It was Day 6 at school today and I've come to the realization that I am a professional teacher. I say that with awe and a bit of hesitation because for the first time in my 4 years of teaching - I feel like a professional. Why? It's this school district. They treat you like a professional - unlike NYC... I have not changed who I am one bit. So I know it's not me. It's the way people treat you -

Day one is over and I have survived! The kids are cute - a little strange - many of them are double jointed and I forgot how boys at this age like to be gross and not cool! It's pretty funny but the day went well. I never realized how crazy lockers could be for kids... they were sweating as they were trying to open them. =) kinda has to make you smile... but no tears in this class. =) Thank God.

"In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven." Matt 5:16 I want my life to be like this... a new creation everyday... and a bright shiny light so that ALL may know that I trust in Jesus everyday! Awesome song from yesterday's set...

YEAH!!! I GOT THE JOB!!!! whoo hoo! Thank you to all who prayed for me - I believe that God totally led the way! Everything went so smoothly - it was so clear that God was moving everything perfectly for me... but it got me thinking - maybe it went so smoothly for HIM - what does GOD want me to do in that school? He already has a set up - every new teacher is placed with a mentor teacher -

Well - here I am... for those of you wondering out there my second interview went well. (or at least I think it did.) I was as honest, open and me as I could be - maybe that's a bad thing - but I really tried to be relaxed and casual and fun. There were 5 people in the committee mtg - two teachers, a parent, a superinterndent's assistant and the principal. It was a little intimidating b/c they

well what to say today - Happy Mother's Day! first things first... Thanks to all who prayed for me for my interview on Friday - all went well - God carried me through every moment and I spoke as clearly as I could. =P I was a little bit of a butthead because I have been waiting for a phone call from them about a second interview. So I figured they didn't call on Friday so I guess I'll have to

HI all, We did it! We walked the 5K - it was a beautiful day and I was so encouraged by the people there - there were families, companies, friends, churches, etc... it was so cool to be a part of something so important. I was even more encouraged that we could be an example for our little ones at church - we had several kids come - and to be a kid and involved in something so huge - was even

Hi all, Sorry it's been almost a month but what I said/wrote last time is still true. I want to be a person with a vision, mission and passion. And so - many thanks must be given to God, Our Lord Almighty. This past Sunday's worship was all God. I know I say that all the time... but it's so true. Only God knows the fears that I had before that worship service. Only God knows how inadequate I

Here's what I'm thinking... I want to be a person with a vision, a mission and a passion. I heard that a long time ago at some retreat. I think I have lost sight of what that meant to me then - but I think about it now... and wonder... what is it a vision for? my life? my relationships? my friendships? my family? my church? praise team? I guess - everything. I want a mission - what is it

well, here's another try.. the last time I was on here - my computer froze and I lost my blog.. =( So I doubt I'll lose anything this time b/c JA bought this new connector thing for the computer. I think he's explained what it is to me a thousand times - but I still don't get it - all I know is that it makes everything work and not freeze on me! =) Anyway - here are some thoughts for today!

hello hello I have sooo much to say about 1000 different things... all you faithful blog readers out there - get ready for this one... ok - where to begin... yesterday I was feeling kinda down - trying to figure out "what is true and real joy?" I was so happy to be back from the NHF PT retreat and happy to see my work friends again - but within about an hour or so - I was down, depressed,

I haven't figured out how to do a lot with this blog - but I like the quiz on which book of the Bible are you? I saw it on cha's blog - I took it and wanted to put it on here - but I couldn't figure out how.. =( sad, eh? anyway - I am the book of Psalms! I like that! =) hee hee anyway - not much to say - our sound system at church is pretty amazing! I can't wait until we can worship as a

hello hello... well, here I am... bored. yes, i can't believe it - but I'm bored. JA went to play ball with the guys and I'm home alone. I thought about watching some tv - but there's nothing really good on tonight... i felt like I was filling myself up with junk and more junk. So I decided to make some ghetto fried rice... did that and checked email and I'm just waiting for JA to come home so

I don't have a lot of time - about to make some pasta for dinner... and then some cookies for dessert before the thursday night group gets here... I'm really so thankful that I have friends who understand me, my faith in God and my crazy, serious but sometimes silly behavior. I saw The Passion - and I thought it was extremely powerful. I am glad I saw it and I think it has helped me see and

I LOVE PRAISING GOD! it's fun, it's peaceful, it's exciting! I don't think there is anything better. A few songs in my head right now - "I'm free... yeah yeah - oh I have been forgiven..." - Steven Curtis Chapman "How deep the Father's Love for us..." I guess this is in my head because I listened to it 1000 times on Sunday =0 tee hee "Not to us, but to your name be the glory.... (

I believe that God is moving in NHF - and it makes me so excited but it makes me anxious too. I now realize that this will not be all fun and games. When we need to grow - it always hurts. It reminds me of when I was a kid and I'd get "growing pains" in my legs - it would hurt so badly I would cry. My mom would say - "oh, you're just growing." Even though it was painful - I had to go through it.

Well, thank God is it Saturday! I love sitting at home all morning and just relaxing... THere's not much to say - I guess I could always write more stories about Spiderman and my other students - but not today... maybe another day - I just want to be thankful for all that God has provided in my life - it's a small life but I know that God is moving and working in my life and in those around

Whoo hoo! So many reasons to blog today! 1. Mayor Bloomberg is closing school tomorrow - this is historic! this is unbelieveable! I am so happy.... =) 2. It is Spiderman's birthday! And her new "Spiderman moment" was: Hey, Ms. Ahn, do you have a plunger? You know, a plunger? The thing that ... you know.....? I paused and then smiled and said, What do you mean? and she said "you know... a

Well here I am again - I'm so glad our email has been working and NOT giving me problems - finally. =) today was a crazy day at work - it was like "everybody mess with my head day!" the superintendent of schools came into my classroom - talked to my students, checked out my board and charts, etc., looked at my grade book my student anecdotals - Ahhhhh! I was a little crazy.... and then I was
