The End of The Chapter

Monday was exhausting, but in a very good way.

The Friday before I received an email from Excel Academy (my kids' school) requesting and interview with me on Monday. I responded to it quickly. I had already committed to the K/1 team to help them screen the incoming kinders for fine motor skills and readiness for the 2010-11 school year. So, I squeezed in my interview on the lunch hour. All went very well and I knew that God was helping bring my knowledge and professional training to the fore front in an otherwise comfortable setting.

I went back to the afternoon screening while the Special Education Team interviewed another candidate. Around 2:00 I was asked to step into the hallway.... A lot like the jitters of being called in to the principals office (almost a literal experience, LOL). There, I was told that I was their chosen candidate and then spent about 5 minutes negotiating my salary!!

God, in his own perfect timing and ways has provided for me a job that covers 2 days of childcare while working one as an OT, the second as a writer. Don't you love the craft of a well written story? God is a master writer. I hope to keep learning, writing and sharing from this GREAT AUTHOR OF MY FAITH!
