Working Toward Goals, And Moving Past Divorce

Monday is a huge day for me. I'll be starting a program that will allow me to complete my Bachelor's Degree in Education with a specialization in English. While I am technically teaching in this field already, I want to focus my efforts on teaching a younger crowd.

I love engaging in the smiles of children and interacting with them. I work closely with my church nursery and this experience has allowed me to recognize in myself what I want most — to work with children.

I was homeschooling for three years, and this was probably one of the greatest achievements I have accomplished. I was in charge of the early elementary aged students and all activities associated with the local homeschooling organization. I loved it. I received tremendous feedback and the outreach of this effort was an incredible experience for me. This is something I don't have in my current position, and I realize that I need the reciprocation of others to enjoy the work I do.

So, while I've researched and planned and prepared for the schooling process, I officially embark on this journey on Monday. I'm excited and scared. I am dedicated though, and know I will work hard so that I can do well. I jumped in with the understanding that the time is now. I also hoped that by working towards a goal of mine, I would be less burdened by my divorce and legal muck.

I am taking a huge leap of faith. I hope everyone has the courage to do so, for themselves.
