Just Me

Ok, so I try to make these mainly about the kids because well, this blog is called My2Blessings but today is all about ME! A couple weeks ago I asked you to pray for me about making the right decisions...thanks to anyone that took the time or remembered! Anyway, today I had an interview at church. I've been working in the nursery as paid staff (meaning I lead a classroom, in the babies that just means changing diapers, checking kids in and out, cleaning after) but today I interviewed for coordinator. My director called tonight and they have placed me in the preschool area for the Sunday night service as coordinator and also a couple Sundays a month I will work in the 4/5 year old classes as coordinator. I won't be in a classroom but will oversee the whole area and help out with kids as needed. There are other responsibilities as well but I will learn all the details starting a week from Sunday. I'm really excited to be starting this new position. I'm very sad to be leaving all my babies that I have been taking care of and the other girls that I have been working with but I will just have to pop in once in a while and say hi. This is definitely a door that has been opened. I have taken 3 different spiritual gifts tests and each one has said that administration is one of my top 2 gifts. Obviously I won't be completely in charge but it gives me the opportunity to use my gifts. Of course, teaching is also one of my gifts as I was a public school teacher before I became a mommy. Now I get to combine the 2 doing something I absolutely love and serve the Lord at the same time. I am so very excited. I prayed that God would open doors in this area if this is where I should be and this opened when I wasn't expecting it to. I knew there would be opportunities in the future but didn't know it would happen so soon.

Tomorrow will be my last post for a while since we will be on vacation for a week. Hope you all have a blessed Friday! I will be cleaning, doing laundry and packing. Definitely waited til the last minute on this one.
