UGG

A few months ago I told you that I got to sub for a special needs pre-school, And i LOVED IT.

It was very scary at first, I thought I would not do well ,But It went ok, and believe it or not I had a great time. Sarah is a OTA (I think that is what it is). With the Warrick county co op, She is the one that got me the job subbing for the pre-school.
SO about 2 weeks ago Sarah calls me and says "HELP ME" can you help me teach a summer school at WEC (warrick education building). I asked what time and at that time I could only do one week of it since I am working more at the gym. I was upset but I had already told Alicia that I would work at Fitness World in the mornings...
The next day Sarah called me and said the time has changed (GOD THING) Summer school would now be from 330 -430. I was so happy I could help with them all!!!!

They started last week and I was nervous, but i knew it would be ok after all it was only an hour. The first day went ok...the second day went even better and the third day went even better...(It is only Monday,Wed, Friday).
I love going to teach these kids. I didn't think that I would be very good at it. I thought that dealing with the kids at the pre-school and then dealing with my kids and working at the gym would really get to me....BUT I LOVE IT!!!!! IT is so rewarding. The hour goes by so very fast.

I have been praying that GOD would show me what to do now that Sloan is in school. When Jamie said that they needed someone to work the front desk at FW I thought well I guess I am supposed to stay here....Not really wanting to but it is a pay check....

I SO love going in and working with the special needs kids it is not like working at a regular pre school. It is so much better. I so very much want to get HIRED on there full time. BUT, I have to take a test called the para pro test for teaching asst. and the BOOK really intimidates me. IT gives me such anxiety to even look at the silly book. BUT, i really feel like this is what GOD is calling me to do. ~ I know that if this is what he wants for me he will help me to do good on the test but the stuff I have to study and know is so hard for me. Just righting or blogging about it is making me nervous....Can you believe that a book would do that to someone.? I know crazy.

I just feel like this summer school thing was so unexpected and me even getting to work at all at the preschool was so unexpected that I really feel like it is a GOD THING....HE is telling me this is what you r to do?! This you will be good at this is where i want you. ~ SO now what..... I guess I will just keep praying....
GOD BLESS

there goes another month....

Can you believe that in 2 days this month will be over. This summer has gone by so fast it is crazy. I would be willing to bet that next month will go by even faster. I work 1 of my 2 jobs every day but 2. The 16th and the 31st. The 16th is Savy's B-day so that day we will be savys day and we will have to do whatever she wants to do.~ Which i would bet would be to go shopping at the mall~ The 31st is my day to do nothing....whatever I bet I will have so much to do it will not even be like a day off.
~~~ But just like everyone we need all the money we can get now as everything is so expensive.
I don't ever feel like I get to see my husband anymore. He works and I work we eat and go to bed~ Crazy isn't it we work to pay bills and get things and we never get to use them....
The kids are doing good savy has had a stomach bug that has been going around she was at a friends house and got sick and called me at 2:30am to come and get her~
Seth and Sloan are getting so big Sloan is a few inches shorter then Seth it is so crazy to see them together. It looks like they are only a year apart.
~~Wei R TRYING TO DECIDE WHAT TO PUT SLOAN IN IN THE FALL BASEBALL OR SOCCER. ~~~ He says he wants to play soccer but Savy and Seth have tried it and they didn't like it. We have the stuff for baseball so I am pushing for that. He is a good player for only being 5. Seth is wanting to try golf so I have called a local golf place to get him started. Savy is going to Volleyball camp sometime this month. She is going to try it so she know if that is the sport she want to play. ~
Katie (the dog) got out last Sunday and we got a warning from the animal control. It said we need to fix are fence. I don't know what to do with her! I love her to death but She is always digging she just wants to run and have fun be free. We r going to try to put chicken wire around the bottom of the fence but i don't know if that will work or not. Maggie is Maggie and Nate is a puppy and he is peeing and poohing all over and he is tearing up paper like crazy~ It is really getting on my nervous~
Ok I guess this is long enough
God Bless

July.....

Ok who ever said that life slows during the summer? I always thought or at least it has held true for me that life slot was down just a bit during summer. Not as crazy, don't have to get up so early, go with the flow kind of days.....NOT THIS YEAR. I can count on one hand how many days I have gotten to stay home all day and do nothing....Well almost nothing.
It is such a blessing to me see how much life and things change. My kids r all getting so BIG I can not (Sarah called my on SKYPE it is like IM ing but you can talk to the people on a mic and see them on a camera if you have them.) I wish that my dad and family would get it so I could talk to them and see them and here them!!!!!!) just a little hint hint...) OK the kids r all getting so big I can not believe that they will all be in school next year. That is so crazy to me. I can not believe that sister will be a teenager soon and seth has come so far since he has enter rehab it is like he is different child...Savy will get her braces on soon and then seth and i am sure sloan....will need them too. I would like to get a retainer because my teeth r turning out. But I am sure I will not be able to afford all of that. I am going to start working at the gym 3 more days in July. I am also helping Sarah teach a summer school class for her special needs children. There will only be 4 of them and the class will only be about an hour long. I thought this would be good to do to see if this is where the LORD wants me for the rest of my life...Savy is doing a Volleyball camp and seth is trying to take Golf lessons and Sloan has decided that he want to play soccer in the fall. I know we stay way to busy....I HEAR THAT....GO is my middle name. I am still on my weight loss journey I have start walking and exercising at the gym....I will add in watching what i eat next week and then after that it will be to push myself to do more exercising. I am still selling Mary Kay and I love the NEW product I didn't know about it at first but I tryed it yesterday and I love it it is so AWESOME!!!
ok that is about it for now i can not think of any thing else to talk about...
GOD BLESS YOU ALL

June~

This week was very busy I was teaching a VBS class of 3 year olds at r church. It was fun to get to know all the little kids. Seth had bike camp (he learned to ride a 2 wheel bike) and then one day I worked too. SO it was a very full week. Next week will be slower the only thing that i have planned it ot for seth, work on day for me, doctor for kindergarten shots for sloan, and ortho appt for savys braces.....Yes I know it sounds busy but not for me it sounds slow. We r planning a yard sale as we have a lot of stuff that we r not using in the new house and there is no need to keep it if we don't have to.
I am very worried about the job situation for next year....We know who the kids teachers r but I really want sloany to go to all day kindergarten. I have applied for several jobs and they all say that they will not be hiring till the fall witch is fine with me. I really don't want to work till after school starts. I just don't know if there fall and my fall are at the same time. I guess that is it for now. I am at Fitness World and I need to start cleaning the nursery.
Have a great weekend~
dad i HOPE u all had a great trip~
God Bless
