The Adventures of Okapi

Okapi decided that he wanted to spend a few weeks visiting me becuase he knew Jocelyn would come back to get him. Okapi and I had so much fun together! He really has been a great help:)

Here are some of the fun times we had together:



Okapi helping me fill out licensure paperwork.





Okapi helping me read my textbook. It was a little boring, so he started to fall asleep.



There's nothing like pocorn, a movie, and hot chocolate on a Friday night! (Okapi actually preferred the water.)




Okapi is helping me pick out which books I should use for my homework and which books I should bring in to read to my students. We especially enjoyed "I Ain't Gonna Paint No More" and "I'm the Best Artist in the Ocean".



Okapi is helping me scan Grandma's pictures!
Look at all the fun we had together. Sadly Okapi is going home after this weekend, but the good news is that means Jocelyn is coming to visit!

Come Come Ye Saints

As I was driving to work this morning, my CD player still had in the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. I was listening and singing along and then Come, Come Ye Saints started playing. I've always enjoyed this song, but today it especially struck me.
