My life, my blessings

Happy August! :)

It's finally time for my internship! Yay!! :)

I start on Thursday. AAH! I am SO freaking excited! Can you tell? Ha :)

I have been working on planning the semester, starting with the course of study and pacing guide. Let's just say, I already have SO much more respect for teachers like my sister who really put their whole heart into planning it the right way and making sure that the kids are learning. The planning process is SO time consuming. But I am loving every minute of it! I promise to post ALL the details after my first week! :)

Well, things at BAM have been getting kind of rough. It's not that the job is hard, the job is great, actually. It's just that my boss is wanting me to work all the time. Last week, I closed every night and it was SO hard to be away from my husband like that. Then, last Friday I went to Athens for my Internship Seminar where they gave us all of the details about what is expected from us and all of the assignments that we have to turn in. Well, after that, I went home and talked to Josh and he told me that he wants me to quit the job. He said that he's tired of me never being home and it's not worth it. SO, Saturday morning I called to quit and came away with a really good deal. I told my boss that I would work out a 2 week notice and he asked me to remain on the payroll so that if I don't get a teaching job in December (Although we pray daily that I will) then I will come back to BAM as a manager and make some good money until I get a teaching job. :) So, it worked out really well.

Now I can focus on the internship and still have the evenings to spend with my husband. AND I can focus on praying that I will get a teaching job! :)

I am SO thankful for everything that I have in my life. First and foremost, my GOD. I am so unworthy of the salvation and daily blessings that he gives me and I am SO thankful for all that He has done for me. I am also SO thankful for my amazing husband. I love him so much and he loves me. There's nothing like that feeling in the world. I am also SO thankful for my family. My Mom shows me unconditional love and sacrifice daily and I don't know what I would do without her. My sister is my rock, she is always on my side and I am SO thankful for her. My Dad is my hero. I only want him to find peace and happiness. And my two little sisters are SO sweet and innocent and bring me so much joy and happiness. I am SO thankful that I get to have them in my life. :) Thank you Jesus...for it all.
