Attitude

An attitude is a favorable or unfavorable evaluation of something. Attitudes are generally positive or negative views of a person, place, thing, or event.

A week ago I received some news concerning my job, I was being moved from 1st grade to Kindergarten. To say I was taken back would be an understatement, do not get me wrong I love Kindergarten but in the past year I became exceptionaly close to my 1st grade team.  I sat up on the balcony of our hotel and just began to pray for some sort of reasoning to what was happening. Jay who I consider my calm in the storm, quickly reminded me that change is not always bad and how important my attitude would be during this process. While still trying to justify the way I felt I was quickly reminded of the many nights I prayed at the beginning of my teaching career to find a job as a Kindergarten teacher, I had so badly wanted it. I thought to how many times I came so close to my "dream", yet something always came up. I realized that our time and God's time is not always the same and how it really was up to me on how this change would work out. I decided right then and there that I would only allow myself to be positive and as it would turn out, once I allowed my self to be excited the joy of moving to Kindergarten began to get stronger with each passing day. I am so thrilled to be teaching Kindergarten and working with a new group of amazing women, I look forward to building bonds with these ladies. Between my 6 years in Pre-K and my year in first I figure Kindergarten will just bridge the gap in my elementary education!
So here's to Change and a Positive Attitude!!!
I AM KINDERGARTEN BOUND!!!!!!!!!!!
