Blessings, blessings, blessings! It's been a wonderful week! After making a hard decision to turn down a potential teaching job, which would have required Anthony and I to move to Tulare, CA, I received a fabulous phone call on Tuesday. A principal from a Norwalk-La Mirada middle school called BIOLA and asked my new favorite person, Kathy Granados, if she had a recommendation for a Middle School English teacher. And guess who she recommended... me! This might be one of those moments that I will look back on and thank God forever for!
Needless to say, Kathy called me, I called the principal and he asked me to come in that day for an interview. The interview was one of the things that made me feel that this may be the job God had for me. Instead of all the other interviews I had been through, which included very formal and rigid questions, this one was just a casual conversation with the principal. It was wonderful! Mr. Easton is a BIOLA graduate and seems to me to be a wonderful man!
Well, how did I get the job... apparently, there was a teacher who broke her tailbone and they need a replacement for however long she will be out. Neither the principal or I know how long the job will be for, but I'm guessing the tailbone doesn't heal quickly. And even if the teacher comes back after a week, I got into the Norwalk-La Mirada sub pool, so more day jobs will hopefully come!
Another perk of the job is that there is an English teacher is retiring next year and the principal said there will be a position opening up that I may qualify for. So... for the next X weeks, I am planning on making a good impression and really praying that this is the place I'm meant to be!
Wish me luck!
