I don't have friggatriskaidekaphobia (fear of Friday the 13th) but it wasn't a good day for me yesterday. I have been pretty jazzed about my upcoming classes-- 2 of the same classes back to back, 3 days a week, in a class that I've already taught and prepped for. Pretty much the ideal situation for me.
Yesterday 1 of those classes was cancelled due to low enrollment. I'm bummed, mainly because by teaching only 1 class, I pay more in childcare than I make (even cutting an hour off the nanny's schedule). I'm now paying for the honor to teach. I do really love teaching, and this is probably the best testament to that.
Yesterday I tried to think of all the good things about having only 1 class-- less grading and more time with Jackson and Matthew top the list. And even though I'm losing money by doing it, I am lucky to have the opportunity to do something I love doing, it will be continuous employment on my resume and it is an opportunity to build upon my teaching experience. Not according to my plan, but I trust that it is a good thing.
Our Blog
We originally started this blog (years ago) to keep track of the every day things in our lives that we didn't want to forget but knew that we would in time. As life got in the way, we posted less and less until March 2010 when Matthew's arrival rocked our world. Now we use this blog to let everyone know how Matthew is progressing and the big events going on at the Hoy House. We are so appreciative of everyone who has read our story and has thought and prayed for Matthew and for us.
