I’m a special education teacher and I have found a passion for teaching students with emotional and behavioral​ needs. I fell in love with a teenage boy at the age of 16, who would later join the military. I could never imagine where that love would take me. Chosen // Beloved // Believer

So close, 318 miles to be exact.

It has finally sunk in that we are moving to Alaska. During our trip across North America it has felt almost like an extended vacation and at end we would hop on a plane back to Charleston, SC. Today we crossed back into the United States and we were elated see standard system instead of converting kilometers to miles.

The 52 year drought is OVER!

Yesterday we witnessed the Cleveland’s 52 year drought come to an end. It was very fitting to see the Cavs win the NBA Finals during our last day in Canada, since they won game 5 during our first night in Canada and won game 6 while we were in Dawson Creek. We would arrange our travel plans to make sure we were in the hotel before tipoff.

It was hard not to get choked up watching LeBron James embrace Kevin Love as the buzzer went off. Watching the pure emotion of LeBron as the final buzzer rang is what I love about the game of basketball. Cleveland fans have been through the ringer these last 52 years: the shot, the fumble, and the drive. This is what many Cleveland sports fans have been waiting for their whole life – to be able to call themselves world champions.

If only Andrew and I could go to the welcoming home parade.
