Prayers Please :)

Nothing really life-threatening . . . I had a meeting with a local principal about a couple long-term substitute jobs for this Spring. Now most of you know that I love being a stay-at-home most days. Most of you also know that I have sworn off teaching on multiple occasions. I wasn't really looking, but I will most likely have to be going back to work in the fall. More to come on that, but back to the topic at hand!

I/We have come to the conclusion that I need to pursue this and let God decide whether it is time or not. These positions could get my foot in the door for the fall. The Reading Specialist position starts next month. Not sure if it goes to the end of the school year or if it is just a 6-12 week stint. I have said that it would have to be the right job, right circumstances, right school, right principal for me to even consider it.

I have said for years that I felt that my strengths in teaching lie in small groups and not having my own classroom (reading specialist/resource/etc). We'll see what happens soon as the position starts next month. I feel that this is God's way of taking control away from me and teaching me that He has us in His hands.

Pray for the following:

1. Clear Direction
2. Peace for me
3. Lily's continued attachment
4. Affordable/Peaceful in home care for Lily (not daycare)
5. References to call me back (so I can submit my app)
