However, now that school is over at Burton, I only have one job and full-time school. I was so unprepared for how hard it would hit me when the last day came. This whole time I kept telling Michael it would be so much easier once my elementary job was done, I would have so much more time on my hands. So with this I-want-it-to-be-over-with mentality, I never even stopped to realize how much I was going to miss it until the last day when I had to constantly keep myself from becoming a basket-case. I miss my kids.
For next year, I won't be returning to Burton Elementary School as an aide for the First Grade. The School District cut the funding so that position is no longer available. I was offered two different job positions at Burton, but I turned them both down. Long story short, I knew the school didn't want to let me go, but I felt like I wasn't the most qualified for either of these jobs, and I didn't want to cheat the students.
We went to the Tautphaus Zoo in Idaho Falls. I can't post pictures of the students, but here's some animals:
Flamingo
My favorite :)
Beautiful!
Unfortunately, my camera died so I didn't get a lot of pictures. Oh well :)
Out of all my goodbye presents, this was my favorite:
Inside it's filled with Rolos. Isn't it stinkin cute? The student saw it on pinterest and had his mom help him ;)
And I was waiting until after school was over to dye my hair because I didn't want to change right at the end. So now, after 3 years, my hair is back to it's natural color!
In other news, we are moving! Let me just repeat that for emphasis:
WE ARE MOVING!!!!!!! :D
We found this awesome place on the same street as Broulims. More to come in my next post :)
