Day 18 of Giving Thanks

Day 18....and a Monday.......

..............today I am thankful for my job.  I get to work with Special Needs students....1st graders.....and not have all the paperwork, meetings, court dates, home visits from when I was a full time Special Education Teacher in a PreK.

Although I am "just" a teacher assistant.....at least I get to keep my foot in the door of Special Education and help my daughter from taking out a bank loan for college.  Yes I miss being the head of the classroom....yes, I miss staying home part time.......yes, I miss that leisurely pace of being a stay at home mommy.............but......in this season of needing to work full time, I can honestly say I like my job..............

GOD IS GOOD!

it is a blessing when you enjoy your job. so many folks just punch the time clock and go home exhausted. even some in teaching positions. i am thankful there are still teachers and aides that love what they do!

I am so thankful for my 2 kitties and my doggie... they are so loving and dear, and I am tremendously thankful the Lord gave them to us.
