So...it's been awhile since I have posted an update on the newlyweds! Time has certainly passed quickly since my last update. Brian has finished his first quarter of his first year at Concordia Theological Seminary. He did well in all of his classes and is now on a two-week break before starting his next intensive quarter after Thanksgiving.
I have a new job! I am now an assistant teacher at Little Praiser's Preschool and Daycare. I work in a classroom with 3 and 4 year olds alongside the head teacher, Miss Debbie. There are 20 children in the classroom and I am slowly getting to know them as individuals. I began the position two weeks ago and I am loving it so far. It is a huge blessing from God to be working a steady schedule! My hours are 7am-1pm Monday-Friday. I am still able to tutor and I enjoy that as well. I have 4 students that I work with individually. One continually makes me try a new approach every session! It is quite interesting.
Working with 3 and 4 year olds is much different from working with school age children. I do hope to have my own classroom someday working with 2nd or 3rd grade preferably. Right now, however, the Lord has different plans. My eyes have been opened to a whole new world...and who knows? I could be a teacher in a daycare for the rest of my life. My point is...the Lord is in control. He makes the plans and His timing is always perfect. I constantly remind myself of this every day, every week.
Brian and I continue our weekly date nights. Last night, we went out for dinner at a Mexican restaurant we have never tried and it was very good. Next week, we will be with his family for Thanksgiving so who knows what the plans will be. We are looking forward to a mini-vacation away from our home in Fort Wayne. We certainly hope and pray all of you have safe travels and a wonderful Thanksgiving!
There you have it...the update on us! Happy Thanksgiving!!!
