Come Back to Texas!

Here are a few more details about how I got to where I am now!
During my 4 years at Frogville, I worked at two precious schools run by Frogville. I fell in love with all the students and staff and everything about the two schools. It truly made me love what I do and realize my passion for teaching and what I wanted to do with my life. The position I held was simply a job for students attending Frogville because the budget did not allow for a full time teaching position. I was happy to oblige! As graduation came and went I said my goodbyes and left the lone star state with all intentions of calling Sandy home indefinitely.
Like I said before, Dr.DR had the answer to my prayers about my future. She called to tell me that the budget had been amended and a full time APE teacher was needed... so naturally she thought of ME! After weighing my options and grappling with the thought of once again leaving my dear Sandy, I decided to go for it. This was my chance to start again. I updated my resume and filled out the application. While visiting Texas in February, I had an interview at the school! The simple act of teaching those kids that I love so dearly confirmed the fact that this is where I wanted to be.
After numerous interviews and sample teaching lessons, I said farewell to Texas yet again and headed back to Sandy! Others had applied for the same position (it's like the perfect job, who wouldn't want it!), so all I could do was wait, and since I was the first to interview, I knew I had a while...
