It is hard to imagine that it has been almost a year since my career path changed without my approval....but looking back and seeing how far that day last June has taken me was worth every tear I shed!
I never knew I could learn so much more about EC than I have this school year, I never knew that I would love working with and coaching amazing teachers as much I do!
The challenges that have come with this new role were ones I never knew existed, but with each one I have learned to take it and make the best of it!
There are so many people that have supported me, let me in their classrooms with trust, listened to my advice, told me to chill out when I am being a little too dramatic (perhaps that's where B gets it), but at the end of the day there have been friendships built that will never be broken!
I am thankful that another successful year is behind me and happy that it exceeded any expectation I ever had.
I love my schools, my teachers, and my admin!
Thank you to my husband for the cute new dress I wore today and for watching me work many nights away!
Thank you to my babies for the happiness they bring every day and making work, worth it to see the joy we are able to provide them with through life experiences that would not be possible without a job (I would love to be home with them...but this job gives flexibility to see them on special school days)!
Thank you to my mama and daddy.....you have a pretty amazing 32 year old.....Just kidding (perhaps I am going overboard on this speech)!
Thank you to my brothers for pretty much calling or texting me 100 times a day.....something would be wrong if I didnt hear from you on a daily basis!
Thank you to my friends and family it makes each day a little easier knowing you are always there for me!
Thank you to my EC girls....Friday afternoons are fun with each of you!
Thank you to my Schools....without you ALL there would not be a need for me!
Thank you to ISS for giving me a chance and the opportunity to become a better advocate for EC students!
Thank you to the Country Club for hosting the luncheon and the AMAZING chicken salad (I need the recipe)!!
Thank you to the blessings that were bestowed upon me this time last year, at the time I thought my life was crumbling, but today is proof that there were bigger and better places for me!
I am sure I am forgetting many, many people because there are 20 individual, EC teachers alone that I could call out for making me feel needed and appreciated daily!
At the end of every day, everything happens for a reason, the reason may not be clear today or tomorrow, but eventually the reason will reveal its self and it will be worth it!!!!
Much love to each of you!!! Enjoy the long weekend...do something fun, Alysha
