TGIF

You never know what kind of mood Gracie will be in after her nap but this morning she was in a pretty good one. A silly mood. She was wanting Kelly's hat so I let her wear it and snapped a few pictures.




We love Friday's around here. Especially when we don't have a lot going on for the weekends. It's just nice to relax around the house and enjoy some family time together. TGIF!

On a sad note... I got some scary news at school yesterday. The bad economy that has just been around us has now hit Plano. Many of you might have heard that Plano is in a major deficit, like 14 million dollars, to be exact. My part time contract is not going to be extended for next year. I found out about a month ago but was told yesterday that my spot that I share with another teacher has officially been filled by another Sp. Ed teacher from a different school. I knew it was a possibility but was really hoping things would work out. They still can, but it will be a long shot now with the bad situation Plano is in. I hate the economy! Even if I wanted to work full time there are no positions at our school right now. Scary times.... Say a little prayer something works out for me. I HAVE to have a job and I really like what I'm doing. It's been amazing working 2 and 1/2 days and being able to stay home a bit with my sweet girl. I'm really hoping things still fall into place and a miracle happens. I know they happen because it happened for me for this year!

Shannon, I love these pictures of Gracie!! What a hilarious personality she has! I'm sorry to hear about the job situation. I know something will work out, and praying for you and your family that I love. A lot can happen over a few months time in the school system or in life in general. Blessings!
