It's been awhile since my last post. We've been busy and away working on church stuff and house sitting for my mom. Kristin started work on Tuesday, she still has scant furniture and only the promise that the rest does exist, but no one knows where it is exactly. She's handling it well, and sitting on the floor a lot.
But now, tomorrow I start. Am I excited? Absolutely. Am I ready to get up early tomorrow? Not a chance. But I will. I will meet lots of smiling teachers and excited administrators. I will learn how to do long division again. I will, someday, overcome my phobia of small children that are not my own. Hopefully, that comes soon.
I am excited about being a worker again. I am excited to be able to do dangerous housework again because I will have health insurance again...after September 1.
But I am most excited about the large number of chances I might have to make a difference in the lives of my students and fellow faculty. South Knoll is my mission field. I hope and pray that I will will be the best Math Lab Aide I can be, so that Christ is honored and that children feel loved and teachers are encouraged.
I want to be a light and a hope to South Knoll, and in doing so, be a light and a hope for myself.
I'm ready to do something that matters.
