Two years ago God showed me He knew best. I had put in for a transfer to an Elementary school but for some reason I didn't feel right about it and basically broke down emotionally in the backyard and I revoked my transfer. At the time I had no idea that it would allow me to spend almost every weekend with my best friend and be able to be where I needed to be and not worry about learning a new job. I will be forever thankful to the Lord for giving me that time and seeing His hand in my relationship with not only Jami but with Jonna and Kiki too!
I told my dad Friday night that this new job has truly opened my eyes to the power of God! If you would have ever told me I would work in an elementary school I would have laughed! Me? Work with the littles? NO WAY! I am a colleg/career planner with a knack of finding scholarships and opportunities for all! I am a prom planner, graduation guru and credit queen! Playground duty? Crying over not sharing? What?!? Not me!
Well, experiencing my new job the past month, I would say that after 20 years of high school memories, I am ready to make my next 20 years making elementary memories! The joy, love and hugs that I get everyday fills my heart! The littles that are sad? Yep! I have words and love for them! The littles that are mad? Yep, I have cooling off and descalation tips for them too! Staff?!? They are amazing too! Can you tell I am happy? Dare I say fulfilled? Only time will tell but for now I am contented being in the Orchard and I know that no matter what He has planned for me, He is in charge and He will make this journey perfect for me!
Psalm 18:30
