I am officially a (part time) working mom!

The time has come! I am so excited to announce that both Baylor AND I will be starting school/work next week! I was lucky enough to interview for a co teaching position at the daycare (preschool) we were hoping to get B into!

If you have kids, you know quality daycares are PRICEY! We have toured a few, including a home daycare but just didn’t find the right fit. I wasn’t sure we would be able to afford the school he will be going to - or make it worth it with me not working, but thankfully we were surprised with this amazing opportunity!

I am super excited to test out instruction with pre-k kids and younger. I don’t currently have any experience in this area but I think it is going to be so fun during this season of life! I feel like this is the perfect happy medium of being able to work and have a schedule while still spending half of the day home with my favorite guy!

I still would love to substitute in elementary school in the future, but I think this will be an exciting adventure as well!

Until I am ready to return to my own classroom full time, I am happy to have this change to experiment. I also am ecstatic for Baylor to have this experience! As you know he is a true quarantine baby, and we have had struggles with socialization and separation anxiety. I know he is going to learn so much and make new friends! All while right down the hall. SO FUN!

I will keep you updated with our journey and continue blogging once or twice a week, don’t worry! I love having this flexibility and I really working is going to make me feel more like “myself”.

Wish us luck! :)
