Kindergarten, Here She Comes!!

I remember like it was yesterday that this tiny 15 pound 10 month old was placed in my arms. She had two little bottom teeth, hardly any hair and a rattle in her chest that concerned me a little. She wore a yellow Carter's pajama that smelled like spit up. She had big, round brown eyes that looked straight into mine as if to say, "Don't I know you???" We brought that tiny package home, fed her nonstop, played with her, loved and loved on her and this is what she grew in to; a smart, beautiful, happy, healthy, vibrant, strong little girl who is so excited to start school. This week we registered her, as we are sure we are staying where we are for at least a year. To celebrate registration, we went straight to Target to start buying school supplies.

What a year this has been. We are in the process of visiting possible Auntie Anne's sites. We have looked in San Antonio, but not sure if that's the site for us. We are looking at a few places in our area right now, which would be really nice. I didn't realize how long this part of the process would be, but that's ok. We're home with friends and family right now.

I did not get the 4th grade position, which I'm really ok with. I have never stepped foot in a 4th grade classroom. All of my experience is 2nd grade and lower, so I'm sure they found someone this late in the game with a little more experience in the upper grade levels. Meanwhile, I'm going to sub and maybe get my foot in the door for a long term sub position, or even a full time teaching position by mid year. God only knows.
