Still Blessed

My spring break is officially over as of 8am tomorrow. So here I go enjoying the last few hours of it by lesson planning. At least I have one more night to prepare before the kids come on Tuesday, because I did not do one single bit of planning over break. In part, I wanted to enjoy it and relax, but basically, I was ticked at the beginning of break. Why? I was pink slipped! That's all I'll say about that because I'm trying to be at peace about the whole situation. 


Okay, I lied. I will say a little more about it. I am mostly sad because of the relationships I've built with my babies and their families. They are who I'll miss most of all. On the other hand, I am waiting in anticipation of another opportunity. I can't help but feeling like God has something else in store for me, maybe even something completely different. And with every bit of anticipation comes curiosity and questions. What will it be? What should I do? How can I figure it out? The hardest thing is waiting and hearing God. 
Psalm 27:14 Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.

Oh, sweetheart, I'm SO sorry!! I wish you would have called or emailed or something. AND, I wish I had seen you while you were on break. :( I had no idea you were off last week. I would have forced you to come visit! ;-) There are so many of your babies that ask about you all the time, and are dying for you to come visit!!

You're so right, though, God does have a plan. Our job is just to follow it, not question it.

You're so sweet. Thanks, Momma L. :)

I am going to a conference April 24-25 in Chicago. I would love to drop by for a visit on the 23rd. I'll email or call you in the next week or so.

Awwwww!!!! I'm just seeing this right now! Obviously, you didn't call to come visit yesterday. :( Boo! Where are you staying this weekend? I realize it's already 8:00 on Saturday night, but call me if you're free tonight. Also, if you can come by tomorrow, please do! I know you have your conference (what the hell kind of conference is on a Sunday?) but if you have time to get together before you go back home, let me know. I MISS YOU!!!!!!!
