Ready or not here I come!

Today had many twists and turns. I have to say that as of yet there has not been one boring day! Today just abused the privilege. I subbed in a kindergarten class that was rumored to be the class from...well not a good place!

I was actually pleasantly surprised as the day began. The children were very well behaved and we had a very good morning. The afternoon was very simple due to music class, art, an assembly and fun Friday, which is a play time for the children (we watched a "Kidsongs" video.)

At the assembly the song Pump Up the Jam was playing and I started dancing, which amused the kindergartners, and everyone else I guess. I started clapping to the beat and the entire gymnasium of children started clapping with me...I loved it! I don't know if anyone knows this about me, but I am kind of a ham...what what WHAT!

So far you're like...wow this is kind of a boring story Wayne! You promised twist and turns...well in an attempt to keep your attention and admiration, I will get right to the point.

The teacher that I am supposed to take over for on October 15th confirmed with me today that today was her last day of work. She wants me to start on Monday...the 5th!

YES, I am excited.

YES, I am overwhelmed with the thought of starting now with my college classes having just started.

YES, I think I will do a great job.

YES, I still question my preparedness.

YES, I will do it.

YES, I will work tirelessly to be successful.

Is all of that self-indulgent...maybe a little. I sometimes have to be self-indulgent, or else I start making excuses for why I might not be able to handle everything that is coming my direction. There is no reason why I can't do it all...well...me, energy drinks, family, and of course a lot of prayer.

Okay, I am done.

I will continue my blog, because the only thing better than meeting different children everyday is spending everyday with the same children. I will not be short on stories and insights!
