Busy Life

    The last two days have been a whirlwind of excitement, nervousness, stress, happiness, etc.  I don't even know where to begin in typing up all that's happened.  Basically, Thursday I got several phone calls that made me realize I need to get on my game as far as really going for a teaching job.  You know that morning job that I was going to apply for? For some reason, I just kept finding excuses not to take that application in. Now I'm seeing that the Lord had reasons for that.
    Anyways, I'm trying to get my application in for Watauga County Schools so that if something opens up, I'll be ready. And I'm going to apply for everything I can because an interview definitely couldn't hurt if I get the chance to let a principal know who I am.  The past couple days I have been extremely thankful for the people in the county who have kept me in mind and kept me informed.  It's definitely true that in Watauga County, things happen fast. And if you don't know people, then you don't get told about what's opening and shifting and yada ya.
    So, yesterday I got to sub for most of the 2nd graders that were in my 1st grade class last year at Cove Creek. Thanks to Mrs. Reece for thinking about me and to Mrs. Johnson who made it possible even though I still had to be at Bethel at 1:30 for after school. It was WONDERFUL. Sometimes a person just needs those days to remember what they're going for and why they fight for the job they want.  I love those kids. I love teaching and learning and enjoying the little moments throughout the day. I was thinking last night that if I ever get a job at Cove Creek (which would be my dreams come true) then they may never learn to call me Mrs. Hall. So many of them know me as Ms. Leslie. I didn't even have to introduce myself.
    So now we are in Fayetteville. I've got a couple things I have to type so I can finally submit my online application and then we're going to enjoy the AMAZING weather and head to a concert that consists of David Crowder Band, Kutless, Newsong, and many more.
    I absolutely love my in-laws.  They are amazing. It's going to be a fun day :)
