I have Worth!

Okay, so I am still pretty new at this, but I'm willing to learn. It would help immensly if our computers at home were working, but alas, I have no access to the literally hundereds of pictures I have taken that would spice up this boring blog.
Today has been a good day. I had a job interview at the Methodist church preschool this morning. I called the other day after hearing about the position from our Relief Society Pres. They said they had already finished interviewing, but asked me a little about myself and my experience. That was all I needed. If there is one thing that I have experience with and the ability to do well, it's take care of children. After just a minute or two of my telling her about my qualifications, she asked me to bring in a resume Monday at 9:00. I went in and had an interview this morning. They had a list of questions for me and I could hardly believe how easy they were to answer. I loved it. I told Darrell about how confident I fely about my answers and how I felt blessed because I had the knowledge to answer them correctly. I did tell him that I thought they were quite basic and almost "no brainers." But he said that they wouldn't have been for him, or for half of the people we know. That made me feel good. They did ask me what I thought my strengths and weaknesses were. For my greatest strength, I said that I was a very nurturing and loving person, and that I love children and they like me. For weaknesses, well anyone that knows me knows that organization is far from my forte. I guess all in all, whether I get the job or not, I feel good about myself because I got to realize that I do have something to offer. After 6 weeks in bed feeling like a turnip, it feels good to remind myself that I can still be of service and have talents that make me special. Char has helped me feel that way too. I was able to help her a bit with a few pesky issues lately. I even got to butt in and offer her sister advice. She did ask for it. I wasn't just being nosey and bossy. Emily has needed me a bit lately too. I LOVE TO BE NEEDED.! I know that the Lord is trying to teach me the benifits to getting service as well as giving it. Service is definately a sign of love for others. Thank you all for your service and making me feel so special. Loves to all. T

  1. Yeah for you girl! I am proud of you. You are the best best friend/sister a girl could ever ask for. What would we do without each other?...fall to pieces.
