30 Days of Thanks: Day #7-My job

Hello again!

I hope you had a great weekend and that lots of things happened that you can be thankful for!

Today I am thankful for my job.

Anyone who knows anything about the economy knows that it is NOT easy trying to find a job.

When I graduated with my Masters in Teacher Degree in 2008, I thought for some naive reason that fate would smile upon me and grant me a job right away.

Ummm...no.

While I did get a job in a great school district, co-teaching and being in the classroom, it just didn't cut it.

I wanted more.

I wanted my kids, in my classroom, with my responsibilities, and I wanted it more than anything else.

In June God blessed me tremendously by granting my prayers with a teaching job in a school district I never would have dreamed of working in.

I'm in a brand new building.

The atmosphere is amazing.

The kids, while sometimes challenging, never cease to make me smile multiple times a day, and I look forward to going to work everyday.

I look forward to seeing their smiles and their "aha" moments when it finally clicks.

I am honored that God blessed me with the responsibility of growing their minds.

I am sooo thankful for my job!

What are you thankful for?
