I started my final semester of college.
Bentley Kyle West was born..... my cousin's first child, and Grandma's first great grand baby.
I finished Internship at a great school.
Danielle Rae West was born.... my uncle's second girl, and my Grandma's last grand baby.
I graduated college with a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education.
Met an amazing man whom I still call my love.
Was hired at the school I interned at working the after school program while continuing to work at the pharmacy.
I turned 24 years old.
My cousin and his wife announced they were expecting their first child.....my Grandma's second great grand baby.
My baby brother turned 11.
My little brother turned 22.
I interviewed for my very first teaching job.
I was recommended out of the 5 that interviewed for that teaching job.
Had some wonderful nights with good friends.
Had a great Christmas with my amazing family.
Yes, 2012 treated me well. One of the best years I've had. The end of 2012 was very exciting, and is leading to bigger and better things in 2013. I can't believe it is already a new year. I'm so very blessed and thankful for all that is happening in my life.
I want to record more in depth about the teaching job in my list. I was recommended by the principal of the school I interned at to finish out the rest of the 2012-13 school year teaching 4th grade Language Arts and Alabama History. I am SO VERY excited about this, and couldn't ask for a better school to work for. Although, it has not been board approved yet. I am "subbing" in this position until the board meets and approves me.....we hope. Everyone at the school is very confident, and believes this position will most definitely be mine. Today was my very first teacher work day, as well as my first faculty meeting.
Tomorrow, I welcome in a room full of 4th graders who are more than likely not as excited about going back to school as I am. I'm not nervous or scared, just anxious and very excited. I have a feeling this position is going to lead me in the direction I have patiently been waiting to go.
