My newest chapter in my life!!

So some of you may know that I have been working on finding a teaching job for some time. It took me 10 years to get my degree as I worked full time and was raising a daughter for part of that as well. I had always had the goal, long before children, that I would be teaching before my child would start school so that I would have the same schedule as my kids. Well, I was becoming more and more depressed as the days ticked by... Madison starts kindergarten August 24th.... Back in April I finally had my first teaching interview. The position was not for sure going to be filled, so I waited patiently (well not really...) and got a call Wednesday asking if I could come interview again on Friday. I did, and waited anxiously the rest of the day for the call back. They said they would make a decision that day as their school begins on Aug 17th!

So you may have guessed from the title of this blogpost--------I got the job!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am now a first grade teacher at a Private school, just as I always wanted, and before Madison starts Kindergarten. Can I just say how awesome it is to fulfill such a long term goal????? God does answer prayers, just not always on our schedule! (But sometimes He does!!!)

So what does this mean?
Well for me=
- I start Monday morning at the school getting my classroom ready for Meet the Teacher on Tuesday! School starts the following Monday!
- I also have a kindergartener to get off to school!
- I am also starting a Girl Scout Troop for my daughter that needs to get going!
- I am a first year teacher, in a new grade-level for the school, so plenty of kinks to work out, right?
For my Brides=
-As of Friday I no longer work at Addington's Florist. Some of you that have inquired about bookings there I have already talked to about this possibility.
-For bride's booked there currently, there is NO CHANGE... I am still going to be connected to the shop for your bridal work.
- My current bride's will probably notice that for 2 weeks or so as I settle into this huge change in my life that my contact is a little slower than usual, I also will not have access to the computer all day as I did before, so I will get your answers as soon as possible, I promise!
- For prospective brides, I can no longer take bookings on Fridays.
-Current Friday weddings will be factored in to my schedule and nothing changes.
- Current Friday rehearsals are not be affected. New Friday rehearsal bookings will be made as I am able.
-Dream Day Productions is still in business and I will be taking new bookings after September 15th. I need a few weeks to get organized and readjusted.
-Lastly, I must postpone the Bride's Summit, as this is no longer a "quiet time" for me! As you can see from the information above!

I hope that as the end of the summer draws near you are all doing well! If you have questions please feel free to email me!
