New Job!

I have now completed 2 weeks at my job.  I am in a classroom with 10 one year olds.  I love being able to play with the babies every day and watch them learn new things!  But it is EXHAUSTING!!!  I am up and down, here and there, bending over to help them up or stop them from falling.  My feet hurt, my back is aching, but I still really like it!!!  It's been a rewarding experience so far.  I hate when people say you can't teach babies.  They learn so many things!  I'm sure all the parents out there can attest to that.

Some good things that come with my job are the benefits!  Jesse and I had to get our health insurance through a company that sells to Americans living overseas.  While it's good insurance, with good coverage, it's a big chunk of money that we pay out of pocket, and it doesn't cover us when we go back to the states.  With my job, we get on a group plan, with dental!!!  Much better!  Also, I get holiday pay and paid leave days (vacation!)!!!  But the best part is, Jesse doesn't have to work at the golf course anymore!  He isn't going to quit just yet though.  He doesn't want to just leave his supervisor hanging when he gave him this job and so quickly too!  So Jesse has talked to him about reducing his hours, and only working there a few days a week.  Plus, it will be nice to get that little bit of extra income for now :)

So that's the update on my new job!  Now I'm getting ready for our Easter gathering tomorrow!  I've already made the cupcakes, now I have to decorate them (hopefully they'll look like Easter baskets when I'm done).  Cleaning the house, boiling eggs, and decorating them later tonight!!!  Easter egg hunt tomorrow for the kids!  Pictures to come soon :)

Happy Easter!!!
