Back to School Cold

After my first whole week of working I managed to bring home a cold. I started feeling a little under the weather on Saturday. It spread to Olivia and Jillian. No fun! It’s going to be a rough week for my mom during the day and Adrian and myself at night.

I hope that this cold won’t last too long. It’s going to be hard to get sleep in with sick babies. I guess we’ll be watching movies a lot this week.

I’m enjoying my new part time job as an instructional assistant. I am working with the first grade team. They are a nice group of ladies! It will be nice to build a rapport with a new group of teachers in a new district. I’m hoping it will lead to a job in the future, since Capo isn’t looking too promising. I wish I could stay where I started, watching my students grow, but it’s just not in the cards for me. My new school is very nice. It is a small school, no more than 3 teachers in each grade level. It is a title 1 school which I think is how they have the funding for my position.

Tomorrow I am excited to go to an EIRM (Early Intervention Reading Model) training. From what I’ve heard it’s an awesome program. I’m excited even though today I found out that I will not be compensated. I hope it’s worth it!
