The Perfect Job!

So my mom called me one day and asked if I would be interested in taking the extended day kindergarten job this year.  It is the same job she had last year, only it would be all day instead of just half day.  I thought about it, talked it over with Shawn, and then decided to take it.  It is only some Fridays (holidays throw it off a little), it is 8 hours, for 14 weeks.  Add to that the fact I get certified teacher's pay, and I'd say that's a pretty good job!  This class is for kindergartners who need some extra intervention.  If they go to kindergarten in the morning, I get them in the afternoon, and vice versa.  In my morning class I have 8 students, and in my afternoon class I have 14 (yeah, a little bit of a handful, but I also get an aid to help).  I've taught two sessions so far and it has gone great!  I really enjoy being in the school again, but I don't feel like I'm neglecting my duties as Mom too.  Like I said, perfect job!
