New life calling
I'm in a serious adjustment period right now. I just spent today at one of my two schools. I have a lot of work to do before school starts. I'm excited and yet nervous. I've never been a Mom and had a teaching job before... I have all kinds of anxieties about it. Am I going to be able to give my family the attention and care they need? Am I going to feel confident in the classroom? Am I going to feel good about my teaching experiences?
In some ways, I just wish that I was going back to substitute teach, but I'm so glad to have my own classroom, scratch that.. classrooms!
Whew! My posts may be few and far between as I adjust to this newness, or.. I might procrastinate and post all the time. I'm still fighting with Blogger, trying to get my pictures up though... sorry for the long delay.

No worries Liz! You are Super Woman, remember? I have always admired your ability to multi-task and be great at all that you do! You are a great teacher and an amazing mother, so don't be stressed. You are a natural in both fields! Have a great first day of school next week! Love and miss you!
I wish you a great first day of school and beyond! I hope your teaching experience is wonderful and everything you hoped it would be. I'll be praying for you and for the strength to be a working woman and a wife and mom.(((hugs)))
You'll do great! And I personally hope that you procrastinate, so I can read what's going on :)
Have you thought about opening a Flickr account?

I have every confidence in both you teaching and mothering skills. Go Liz!
Teaching...oh how I miss it. Have a great year. I'm sure you'll have lots of interesting stories to share.
Hey Liz!
Ahhhhhh......beginning of the year anxiety - I'm feeling it too, except that I don't have a child to care for, just a husband! You are an amazing person who I look up to as you are creating such a wonderful life for Hunter and for all of you three as a family. That is so heartwarming.
Miss you,
Candace
Elizabeth,
No sweat! You're a natural at both teaching and mothering. Ask Matthew, Heather and Amanda. You started mothering them when they were born!! The teaching will just come to you as you touch base with your students. No worries! You'll be a hit!! I love you so much and wish the best for you. Just relax and enjoy the wonderful experiences. Being THE teacher is so rewarding! And you'll always be THE mother! Also very rewarding. You've got the best of both worlds!
Love, Mom
