FRUSTRATIONS

I have felt frustrated about somethings lately. I have been trying to organize my fall work schedule. With my new job I will be working ten more hours plus TONS of more responsibilty. I have felt so blessed with this promotion. I now will have Health Insurance which i've not had for two years, I am getting a raise, more hours and the joy of running my own class. With this new job I will most likely lose some of my friend and hang out time, plus I wont be able to work with the Soper's as much.

 Most of you who know me, know how much I love this family. E was one of my first preschoolers and one day her mom mentioned needing a respite worker. I quit Target and the rest is history. Four summers and four school years later I still work with them. Mr C man just turned 12 and he is going into Jr High, what a priviledge it has been watching him grow up. I have been able to hang out with E and O and C everyday. They have become part of my family, E always wanted a sister. I have learned so much from the Soper's. My patience has been tested and I have grown so much. I have a great love for their family and especially C. Austism is such a trying disease/disorder. My love for Special Ed kids has grown immensely.
Everyone goes through trials..small, medium and big ones. This blog has been my release from stress and life.  One of my biggest frustrations has been the way people treat others. No one knows what you are going through. You can pretend or say you know what they are going through, but you aren't in their shoes. I believe everyone needs to take a step back and think about others. I try to do this but I know I can do this more. I need to work more on trying to respect and see where others are coming from. I know Satan is working really hard on me and knowing that I have a hard time with the fact that I'm not married and starting my own family. I hope for this someday, I just have to keep bettering myself and being the best I can be. Just remember everyone struggles single, married, divorced,widowed.

Well I must be off I need to prepare my lesson for tomorrow. Oh church calling :$
