My first school year working is over. I'm so thankful for these past months because I've learned so much. Before I landed this job, I was floundering a bit, trying to find my purpose. All the stars aligned though, & I was hired to work with some kids who need some extra help. Then the first few days into it, I found myself sitting in the car crying before work, trying to talk myself into going. The curriculum sent me into a panic. When I saw the Math I would need to be teaching, all the self doubt crept in. So I lost sleep many nights early on, going over my lessons in my head. I'm so glad I stuck it out though. Now I have more confidence, because I was able to get through it....& end up understanding it well enough to teach it. I can even say, I slightly enjoy Math now. Crazy!
So Summer is now here. My oldest, Sage, finished up 6th grade today. I'm really proud of her, I was watching her have fun with her friends at a breakfast following graduation, & thinking she is so unlike me at that age! That is a good thing :)
We are waiting to see what these next few months bring. Possibly the adventure of moving, or being grateful right where we are at. I'm curious to find out.
