Just an Update

The interview was held on Monday morning with the principal, assistant principal, guidance counselor, and the head of the English department. I don't think I could have asked for a better interview. I had no clue I would be interviewing with a group of people, so I didn't have time to work myself up about it and become nervous. It was great to just walk into blindly. The principal told me that they would be interviewing candidates all day long and that they would make a decision by the afternoon. Well, 5:00 p.m. rolled around and I hadn't heard anything. I was very disappointed because I thought they really enjoyed what I had to offer as a teacher.(I even brought visual aids and examples of lessons.) I lost sleep Monday evening. Thankfully, the principal called in the morning to let me know that they had to interview two more people, which is required from the system office, and that they should reach a decision by Tuesday afternoon. I felt pretty positive that there could still be a chance...considering she told me that they still were interested in me filling the position. Again, the evening came and went and I hadn't heard anything. This morning, still hopeful, I called the school and the secretary informed me that the principal will be in a workshop until Friday and I should call back then. So, please keep those prayers coming! There is still a chance!!
On a mommy note, I have started to make Jack's baby food in order to pinch a few pennies. So far, he has loved the corn and sweet potato mixture, as well as, the banana and peach combo! It is a lot of fun and so easy to do! If anyone has any good baby food ideas, let me know!!
