The Interview


The interview went well.
However, I do not think I will be offered the job. I have not actually spoken with the school, but the job posting was taken down and I can't imagine they would do that if they had not already offered and had someone accept the position. At first I felt annoyed and slightly disappointed, but I'm okay with not working right now...or am I just telling myself that since I didn't get the job? It felt pretty darn good putting a suit on and walking out of the house with a purpose. I felt like my old self, before the military, before moving 4 times in one year, before spending 6 out of 12 months away from my husband. It's not that I like my old self better, it's just that I'm still getting acquainted with my new self. Did I lose anyone?

I spoke with Nathan on the phone tonight about not getting the job and his response was-

"Who cares....you already have a job, you're the mother of our daughter."

And THAT is why I love my husband.

Husbands can say the best things, at the best times :) I agree with him! On a speical ed note, that school is crazy for not giving it to you! But HE has his reasons:)

I agree with your husband and ToniJean. God has a plan. Being a wife and a mom is a wonderful job - - and who says you can't put a suit on when you go grocery shopping. If it makes you feel good - - dress up. I have several friends who do this.

You rock and so does your husband. I think your awareness of feelings and changes in your life is inspiring. Being aware of what is happening in your life is sometimes more difficult than actually dealing with what is taking place. Hope that makes sense. Miss you! Love the picture.

congrats on the job ;) of course they hired you... GOD has his purpose right? Those little kids are getting one BIG blessing in March with an amazing teacher like you!!!! I'm so excited for you and I'm so sad for you that the mommy guilt has to start again...just remind yourself...Mac will be so proud of her mom when she's old enough to understand, knowing you do what you do for so many special amazing children. AND pretty soon she'll cry when you pick her up from daycare...boy is that a strange feeling!
