Once a Bearcat....ALWAYS a Bearcat

We have some BIG news at the McCollum house hold. Ben has recently accepted the Head coaching job at Northwest Missouri State University. He had to be up there on Sunday night to get started, so Peyton and I are alone during the week and will see Ben again on the weekend. www.nwmissouri.edu You can read all about Ben if you follow the link and click on athletics. Peyton and I are very proud of Ben and although there is a lot of change in store for us, it is all going to work out for the best.

I had to put my letter of resignation in today. It is always so difficult to tell your boss and the people you work with that you are leaving them. I had a lot of tears and a lot of hugs....our time in Emporia has been great and the people here are ones I will remember forever. I am going to be applying for a position at Horace Mann Elementary which is the laboratory school on campus at Northwest. Ironically enough, Coach Tapp's wife taught 2nd grade too and her position will be coming open at the end of this week. Once I get everything settled, I know I will feel much better! Then there's our house and getting it sold and OH YEAH, we are having a BABY! I had to go to the doctor today because I was having so many contractions (probably stress induced). I am dilated to 2 1/2 - 3cm already and continue to have a lot of contractions. My mom is hopefully coming to stay with Peyton and I for the rest of the week and hopefully most of next week too. Ben is only three hours away, so hopefully he will make it back in time if I do go into labor at some random time.
