Who is Mrs. Grant???

Hey Friends! So since I am still getting my toes wet with the whole blogging thing and I thought it would be fun to dive right in and participate in the 2014 Blog Hoppin Teacher Week.

 

Here is what you can look forward to this week:

 

So let's get started with Monday!

 

My name is Elizabeth Lee-Ann Hayes Grant. I teach 2nd grade for Gaston County Schools. I work in a title 1 school and LoVe it. I was born and raised in Dallas NC. As my friend Libby would say, "I am a Bi-product of Gaston County Schools." I am so happy and thankful to work for the county that I went to school in. I met my husband when I was in 12th grade. We went to school together for 3 years and never knew each other. (Funny huh?) Once we started dating we never looked back and we are coming up on 10 years together. My handsome husband is a County Planner and I think he is pretty brilliant.

Here's a little flashback to some of our favorite moments.

 

 

               

*Fun Fact-In the photo of our wedding, that is my sweet father in law who married us; such a special moment. 

 

On January 4th 2012 we welcomed our sweet boy Kipton Michael Grant. There are no words to describe how incredible it was to bring this sweet miracle into the world. He has changed our lives for the better. Every day he reminds me how precious life is. I love watching him grow and become his own person. He is full of life and so social. The past 2 1/2 years have flew by but have been the best ride I have ever been on. Meet my heart, my world, my precious loveable boy. (I'm probably a little bias)

 

 

 I'm getting ready to start my 3rd year teaching. My first year I taught Kindergarten, and last year I taught 2nd. I absolutely love 2nd grade. I love the quality of work that students are able to produce. I love all the fun books and activities that we get to do. Our school is very small and we mostly only have 2 teachers per grade level. This year I am teaching with a new teacher who ironically taught Kindergarten last year in my old room, but I am super thrilled. We have become great friends and our work compliments each other well. I am SUPER excited to see all the fun things this year brings along with my new blogging hobby =) Stay tuned for exciting posts in the future.

 

So I will end with 10 things you didn't know about me already! (Thanks for the template Amy Lemons! You are AWESOME! ) If you haven't checked out Amy's Blog head on over. She is brilliant and super friendly.
