Answered Prayers

For the past few months I have been praying, wishing and hoping to be able to tell you this news: I GOT A JOB! a real one. with a contract. and medical insurance. Someone pinch me.

This school year, I will be teaching third grade. Specializing in science and social studies. Which is somewhat new for me since when I had my long-term sub position I taught math. But I am super excited.

I had always planned on teaching younger kids...so my Carson Dellosa animal-train alphabet is going to have to go back. And my collection of hundreds of books (which happen to be picture books) is not going to come in very handy with children who are starting to read chapter books. But, nonetheless, I am super excited.

I don't have much more time to write at the moment, so I'll update with a little more info later...but I just wanted to let you all know that I have finally found a job and that I am so grateful that this has happened.
