I Did it!

I have some wonderful words to say: I DID IT!!!  I finished the school year.  There were many days when I thought I'd never make it.  I give 100% of the credit to Stephen who pushed me through every time I decided it was time for me to quit (which happened at least once a week).

Now I don't want it to sound like I have an awful job.  I have a great job!!!  I loved the children and I loved helping them with their speech.  I had wonderful supervisors and mentors who taught me a lot and who encouraged me along the way.  I simply found that working full-time was a much bigger adjustment for me than I expected.  I finally feel like I'm starting to adjust though (now that school is ending), so I think the fall will be much better now that I know what it's like to work and what to expect.  I actually found it really hard to say goodbye to the kids.  I will miss them, especially those I will probably never see again (as I have requested a change from one of my schools in order to have a shorter commute).  I'm grateful to be employed, and grateful to have a wonderful job.  I'm also grateful to have the summer off!  This picture is my Yay for Summer!!! pose. :)
