Thanks for visiting my diary. I've been journaling since 1984 and have chosen to share some of my entries online. They are not all positive thoughts, but I hope that reading them might be a blessing to someone who needs encouragement.

If you are just coming to my diary for the first time, please read my introductory entry, where I share some background that is important if you plan to follow this diary regularly.

Please also visit my music page, where you can hear samples from my debut CD, I Believe, which features songs written based on experiences shared in this journal.

update on work

Things went better today. I was very anxious during the first hour, anticipating gym time and not sure how to handle the shouting five-year-old. During the first hour, I'm with only toddlers, and they are slowly getting the hang of how things go with me. When we did the gym transition, the other teachers offered to help, but I was able to tell them I didn't need it. I had kids holding my hands, but that was good and everything went without a hitch during the transition.

There was no shouting during gym time, and I was very glad not to have to deal with it. The kids seem to be getting more comfortable and are startingto interact with me more like they do with the other teachers, and that helps my state of mind a lot. They were good about giving me feedback about what was going on when I needed it and didn't give me too much. So I'm feeling quite a bit better about things.

I think this is going to be good for me as well as the kids. It's just going to take some getting used to for all of us.
