Big Changes Coming Our Way!

Remember this part of my past...



Well, it's coming back! Most of you know that I taught school for 3 years before I had Savannah. I thought I was done with that phase of my life but that was until I got a call from my Principal. They need a part time kindergarten teacher. This has been a really hard decision...especially because I needed to decide quick! I haven't stopped thinking about this opportunity. We could really use the income, it's only part time and it's something I LOVE. On the other hand, I have to leave my baby. It kills me to think about it. I have been so spoiled being a stay at home mom. Luckily my in-laws are AMAZING. They are able to watch Savannah most of the time, which is such a blessing. I don't have to worry one bit, but trying to decide who to leave her with on the days they aren't watching her is hard. Savannah is a great baby and I know she will adjust well. Anyway, this has consumed my thoughts for the last week and I could write pages more about my thoughts but I will spare you!

I officially start Oct. 6th.

Wish me luck!

Oh my gosh I had no idea you had to decide so fast and that you were considering this! You better know who will be caring for "baby Vannah" when your in-laws can't - yours truly. :)

How exciting. It sounds like the best of both worlds! Good Luck!!!

Wish I was closer to watch her!

The Littlefields said...

That is so exciting! I bet you have a lot of options for babysitters - but I live in Sandy now and would be happy to watch her if you need me. Good Luck!

Angela said...

So it's true! Yea!!! Welcome back!!!

Pete and Bekah Ackerman said...

OH my gosh!! Did you get an afternoon class? That is so exciting! If anything comes up- and you're needing an emergency baby sitter... drop her off! I would love it!

Karin said...

Awesome! Good Luck!

Cody and Wendy said...

Oh good luck Meg. You'll be darling in the class room again! I can see why you're so stressed about it though...leaving that cute little girl of yours is going to be tough. But heck, it's only part time right? She won't even know you're gone!! Good luck!!

Mark and Racquel Stallings said...

I am so excited for you and for me to be able to play with Savannah every week! Caden doesn't even know what is coming he is going to love it! You are going to be great!

Josh n' Joni said...

Ahh!! Awesome! It will be fun to be back. I got a little sentimental today, in fact, when I started thinking that this is my last year. But that quickly went away when I remembered I teach 7th graders all day. Ha!
Have fun - I can't wait to hear all about it!

Lisa said...

GOOD LUCK! I really think this will be good for you! I wish I had some kind of part time job that I loved. I thought when I saw this post that you were pregnant too!

The Fosters said...

Megan!! Crazy! Um... Maybe we should just come back and live with you guys, and I'll just watch Savannah all day! Good Luck with this decision! The great thing is your school is amazing and you loved it so much while you were there! We miss you guys tons!

Megan, I can help you with babysitting for Savannah. I am sure her and Avery would get along great. Give me a call. Good luck going back to teaching I bet that was a hard decision to make. Talk to you later.

Mich and Nate said...

Oh my gosh! I think you will love it! Part time sounds perfect too, but I bet it will be hard to leave your little doll. I can't wait to hear how it goes! Also, The yoga ball has been my saving grace! He loves it and it's strengthing my back muscles while i am at it :)...no seriously we use it at least 5 times a day. I am SO glad I talked to you
