Answered Prayer

After nearly three years of looking for a teaching job. . . .I finally got one!  Starting in August I will be teaching second grade at a private christian school.  I have subbed at this school and know the teachers and the students.  I am excited but scared because there is only one teacher per grade level so I don't have anyone to "copy"!  I am glad to finally be doing what I am supposed to do!  The damper on the joy is that my Mom was supposed to be around so she could help me get stuff for my classroom, help me decorate and just be my cheerleader.  I miss her so much.  I know that she would be happy for me and would already be thinking of things to do in my room and so many other things.  So that is my answered prayer.  I hope that there are more answered ones in the near future.
