Have I Told You?

It just dawned on me that I do not think I have told you what new "adventure" I am starting tomorrow!

I have agreed to teach 4-year-old preschool at a church here in town. I am very excited about this! I graduated from college with a degree in Elementary Education so this is going back to my roots so to speak. I have not taught in a long time. The last time I did so was 2-year-old Mother's Morning Out, and no offense to 2-year-olds, but I was mainly a glorified babysitter. I believe (and earnestly hope) that I will actually be teaching the 4-year-olds and getting them ready for "big school." I will have eight little ones, and I have been praying for the eight calmest 4-year-olds in this entire world to be in my class! I hope this is one prayer I get answered! BTW, my 3-year-old daughter will be at the same preschool in her own class. This is the main reason I am doing this. I wanted her to be socialized, but I wanted it to be tuition-free :)

My stress-out is this: I have to decorate my door. Something cutesy, you know? You should also know I am not a cutesy sort of girl. At all. But, guess what? My hubby is actually good at that sort of thing. ( I know, who would have thought?) He has brainstormed with me and we have come up with an idea (with a little help from online examples as well). I don't want to tell you about it yet. I am going to take a picture of my door once it is completed and post it here. Please be gentle with your opinions. I've never had to do a door before. I hate bulletin boards, so a door seems overwhelming!

Anyway, to switch gears for a minute, something is in my eye. No really. Something has been in there since Sunday night and it is getting to me. It is not really painful, but it is quite annoying. I have an eye appointment tomorrow. The problem is I am not covered on hubby's vision insurance. There is no telling how much this will cost. I am praying that whatever this is will heal on its own so we don't have to spend the money. For some reason, that verse about removing the plank from your own eye before trying to remove your brother's speck keeps coming to mind........

Love y'all.
