Blown Away

Wow, I am almost speechless when it comes to talking about my new school and this week. I have never felt so much support and love from my coworkers and parents of students. This new school is amazing and I am so thankful that God has brought me to this wonderful place. I know this is the honeymoon stage and some things will come to light this year that won't be so great but I just have a great feeling about this school and this new year.

I overheard my boss talking to one of the teachers this afternoon about me and my new class. Apparently I have a few students who have behavior issues. Anyways, Ron was talking to the teacher about how much faith he had in me to take on this class and that he knew I would do a great job. That totally made my day.

I am totally exhausted and at times feel overwhelmed thinking about all I have to do before the first day of school on Tuesday. But above all else, I am blown away at God's goodness and this new place I am working at. God is good all the time!

Changes

Wow, it has been awhile since I have posted on here. This summer has been great but flew by way too fast! I start work bright and early tomorrow morning.

My life has been full of changes these last few months as well and I am feeling the stress of that right now. I am transitioning to a new job that I am very excited about (teaching 2nd grade in Bellevue), I have moved and am living with a great girl that I am getting to know as much as I can. The hardest change for me is that I just drove my best friend across the country to MN as she is moving there. This year has been one of the best in my life as I had so much fun with Kirsti both as a roommate and friend. We had great times and have made many wonderful memories. I know our friendship will last a lifetime but it is hard when she is thousands of miles away.

I am exhausted as I am still in central time zone even though I am back in Seattle. So, that is all for now. I promise to update my blog more frequently.
