Best Christmas Decisions 2010

Stay tuned for my future post about mine and Rob's first Christmas together and our trip to N'awlins 

Half a year later

6 months ago today I married the greatest man I've ever met. 6 months ago today we committed ourselves to selflessly serve one another through the love of Jesus. 6 months ago we said "I do until death do us part". And after 6 months I have never felt more in love and committed to the man I call my husband. He is more than supportive and loving. I could not ask for more in a husband, nor could I thank my God for sending me such an incredible man.
Happy 6 monthiversary to my awesome husband. Here's to many many more monthiversaries. I love you dearly!!

Dream job

Every now and then I have an overwhelming feeling that I could be doing more with my degree and knowledge/experience with early child development than what I'm doing now. I love my children, but I desire to do more than just babysit and referee their arguments. Last night that overwhelming feeling crept up again. I started searching for schools that resemble the Child Development Research Center on UAs campus. It wasn't long before I found exactly what I was searching for. St. Andrew's Episcopal school. Out of curiosity I sent them an email telling them about myself and my degree. In the email I asked them what requirements they have for pre-k 3-4 teachers.
This morning around 9 am I received an email from the administrative assistant asking if I could come in tomorrow morning at 11 and bring my resume with me. Holy Moley!! I could not believe my eyes!! The first thing I thought after I jumped back into my skin was, "Sheesh, I gotta get crackin on typing up my resume. I have never written a resume or had a legitimate job interview.
So I got to writing. I had Rob's laptop beside me with his resume up and just started recanting all the things I have done in the past few years.
I am so excited about the possibility of being a for real teacher. I have never written a lesson plan, but with some proper direction, I think I could get the hang of it pretty quickly.
Please say a prayer for me tomorrow morning around 11. I have no idea what to expect but I am very excited for what could come of this. So far it seems pretty promising. They were awfully quick to respond.

UPDATE: I went in for my interview this morning and come to find out, the school isn't hiring, and doesn't really plan to any time soon. Um...what the heck? So come to find out, I wasted an hour of my day on this interview and rocked it all for nothing. The only thing they could offer me was a job as a substitute teacher. No thanks. She said that if they ever have a teaching assistant job open up then she will let me know. If only she had mentioned that in the email I sent her, then we could have saved ourselves a whole lot of trouble. Instead she wasted my time and her's to tell me that she doesn't have a job for me. Whatevs, yo.
