hello, my name is... mrs. peterson

my first day back to school

i loved my job as a teacher. it was more fun to me than work. i loved the private school i worked for, the kids i taught, and the teachers i worked with. my teaching experience was a blast. i was sad to leave on the last day of school, knowing i wouldn't be back- but instead having a baby in a few weeks. when i found out i was pregnant- i knew i wanted to be a stay at home mother... working never crossed my mind... there was no way i could leave my new baby. i am lucky that i am able to stay at home with maddex. i got a call from someone at the school asking me to substitute for them. what? i called the school staff right away- worked out a plan with them... and now i am substituting. i am so thrilled to be back... it is perfect for me. i can choose to work whenever... and it is only 4 hours a day. now that maddex is older- i don't mind leaving him for a few hours with grandma every now and then. this is truly a blessing for our family.
