One small step..........


Today I took what might seem to some as a small step in today's society, but let me assure you, it was

ONE GIANT LEAP,


for this stay at home Mama. I completed, for the second time (ugh and sigh on THAT story), my application to be a sub and reading specialist at my kid's school. I made the required copies of my degrees, credentials, and CBEST score. It is turned in, and secured. Now we wait for the phone to ring.

It has been six years since I have officially been in charge of a classroom, but I figure it is going to be like riding a bike. Once in there I can follow a lesson plan, organize and manage a class, and keep everyone from killing each other.

My confidence has been shaken from not being in the work force for so long, but today on my way home, I realized the tremendous blessing that the last six years has been. I have been taken care of by my Father who knew what was best for me and my family. The next step, I am not sure of, but I know that there is a God holding my hand making sure I don't fall.

It's just like riding a bike. ONce you're in front of the classroom it all comes back to you, only this time you get to leave at the end of the day with nothing left undone.

You're an awesome mom and you are also an amazing teacher.

Students will love you!!!
