New Career!
I am officially a stay at home mom! Yipee! I do have to go back and teach the last 4 days of school this year, to finish my contract. But I will not be returning for next year. Our district is cutting positions, so I decided that I'm saving some poor 1st year teacher her job! I'm so excited to be able to spend more time investing in raising my own kids! Challenging, I know...but worth it! At least I'll give it a try and see how I like it. Okay, to be honest I just got done filling out a job application for my next job! I'm going to teach the parent/tot swim class at our local YMCA. The bonus is that if I work 1 hour a week I get my family membership for free! Who can pass that up? I'll teach 1 class a week to start with. We'll see if they talk me into getting my Lifeguard Certification again...

Wow, Amy, that is great! I can tell you from my own experience as a stay at home mom when my kids were little that you will never regret it. I am happy for you and I guarantee your boys will be more happy than you will ever know. I wish you the very best in your new career! Becky Peterson (mom to Aaron, Aimee, Jesse, and Brandon)
I'm so excited for you. The spot at the Y sounds perfect...a few hours doing your own thing and given the awesome Y you guys have....free membership? I'd say you found a win-win.
We HAVE to plan a weekend together...although that is getting trickier since we all keep having more kids!!!
Yay, Aim! I am so happy for you! I'm glad things are working just as you wanted!
Give those boys a little squeeze from me.
Love you!
That's awesome, Amy! You and the boys have lots of great days ahead of you!
I'm anxious to hear how working at the Y goes! What a great deal!
this new set up sounds PERFECT for you!! that is so great!
How exciting!!! It is a pretty sweet deal to be able to be home with your kiddos but still have a little something that's "yours" to help you keep your sanity. :) We're super excited for you guys! Have a great summer and be sure to let us know when you'll be up visiting - we'd love to meet up with you!!
Congratulations!
I sometimes wish we could swing something like this financially... but I would need something small as well. Good for you guys!
Enjoy your last few days in the classroom. :)
