It's Official!

I am officially employeed at Mountainside Elementary as a Reading Aide. I will be helping those kids that struggle and need extra help with their reading. I will work 15-20 hours a week. Perfect! I hope to pop into my kids classrooms and volunteer where needed during the other times of the day. I am also in the PTA helping with the newsletter. This should keep me busy. Just what I was hoping for. It's going to be fun! My prayers were answered. NO more tears! ( for now )

I hope you know my post titled "No tears here" was not intended to point any fingers. Yours is not the only blog with tears noted, there have been many(actually all that I"ve read) I was just stating my feelings on my blog.:)
Take care -- and ENJOY that job. You have the best of both worlds now!; August 27, 2008

It does sound like you have a great principal. It makes a difference when you have great teachers that want to help and make school a great experience for parents.

Enjoy your year!

Alison Daugs said...: No worries Megan- I didn't feel like I was being singled out. However, I am a baby! I own that! I think our whole family has a real sensitive side. It's a good thing. We show emotion more than most people I know. You'll get to my stage sooner than you know it and you will be a baby too I guarantee it! Enjoy your quiet moments!; August 27, 2008

Bart said...: The Lord moves in mysterious ways. I see it all the time in my life and in the lives of my family. I hope we are always greatful for the blessings and the challenges. What a great choice your principal made. You will be an inspiriation to those who need it the most. We love our own and are concerned most for them, but they are all God's children and our brothers and sisters. You will be a great help to them and even more after you've finished your own schooling as planned.

We love you,

"To you women of today, who are old or young, may I suggest to you that you write, that you keep journals, that you express your thoughts on paper. Writing is a great discipline. It is a tremendous education effort. It will assist you in various ways, and you will bless the lives of many--now and in the years to come, as you put on paper some of your experiences and some of your musings."
--President Gordon B. Hinckley

"You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep a record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh you memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. Some may be significant only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experience.
--Gordon B. Hinckley, 2006

"When our children were very small, I started to write down a few things about what happened every day..." The prompting came to me, "I'm not giving you these experiences for yourself. Write them down." "I recorded those things so that my children could have the memory someday when they would need it." "Have I seen the hand of God reaching out to touch us or our children or our family today?" "I urge you to find ways to recognize God's kindness."
--Elder Eyring 2007
