So excited for PandaGirl to start First Grade today!! I'm sure there will be stories to tell later, but for now we are off to a great start for a GREAT year!! I am ecstatic to NOT be working full-time, but rather will be teaching music classes to the babies through age four at our church's child development center on Mondays and Fridays. This is the place where I worked two days a week teaching four year olds the year before last and LOVED every second of it!! I can't wait to get that ball rolling. Living on a budget again begins, too. YIKES! Last paycheck from my "job" came last week. : ( NOT sad about the awful full-time work schedule being gone, though. Thanks to all of you who listened to me whine my way through that ordeal all last school year. ; )
More to come from the Tales of a First Grader...
Best wishes with all the 1st grade transitions. I'm so happy that you aren't returning to your full-time work schedule. You must feel a HUGE sense of relief. I'm trying to not be too grumbly about work right now, but I'm losing that battle. I also lose Mr. Mom soon. He returns to his elementary school after Labor day.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!!
My little girl started first grade two weeks ago and she assures me that the day "zips" by much faster than kindergarten!?? Your new job sounds like a much better fit for you, I hope you love it.
ReplyDeleteNow you know that's one of mine and YLOW's favorite quotes from one of our favorite movies ;)
ReplyDeleteI see that GloryandGrace has already posted about the quote...but there's just something wonderful about school supply season, isn't there?
ReplyDeleteI know you will enjoy your time much more than miss the money you made! Love you!
ReplyDeleteOK...I'm LOL b/c I am referring to the movie quote as well. It did not escape me. Love the movie and LOVE getting new school supplies...even as a teacher. I don't know if you ever knew that that is a "thing" my dad and I do together. Shop for cool pens and stuff...we always have. When we're together, he asked, "Hey, wanna go to [insert store name here Staples, Office Depot, Walmart, etc.]?" I love it!
ReplyDeleteHope PG has a great year!
Ok. I tried to answer my super powers/super woman status on tonight's blog post.
