Learning to wait.

As you can tell from the title, I am still in limbo concerning the job situation. I was told on Tuesday that I was not selected for the position at the high school. On Friday I was told that I was actually the candidate the SPED team wanted and that the person they offered the job to was considering not taking it. Long story that I cannot write about publicly, but I am still in limbo and considering the position. In the mean time, I have a couple interviews coming up at schools in D20. My current position continues to be a struggle. Mostly in supervising six paraprofessionals. It is hard to make six women, who work together in the same room, seven including myself, get along. It's more than hard. It's down right impossible. That, I will not miss. Continue the prayers as to my job hunt. I just need clarity from above concerning the choices I am to make. For now, God just seems to tell me "wait". That is sooooo hard for me.

I am so proud of Becca and her Battle of the Books. Her team took first place in the district and were one of the top ten in regionals. The kiddos worked so hard. One of the students in my class participated and it was great to see him thrive in a stressful, yet normal environment.

Laura got her hair dyed this week. She now has blond streaks in her dark brown hair. I was so scared of what it was going to look like, I couldn't even go into the salon afterwards. I was a chicken and I sent Tom in. When I saw her in the car, she looked beautiful. It was one of those moments where you look at your daughter and you see a beautiful young woman emerging. Now, I hear her in the bathroom, in the mornings, blow drying her hair. For those of you who know my Laura, this is quite an accomplishment.

The weather here in Colorado is hot and cold, rainy, snowy, sunny all in the same day. Right now it is beautiful outside and not too hot. A great day to get outside and enjoy Spring.
