Last day of 2013

I saw this on Facebook and thought it was fitting since it's the last day of the year 2013. 

Enjoy and be safe! 

Our Family is growing!

If you were expecting a post with the announcement that I'm pregnant, sorry to disappoint folks! 

This is not it! 

I'm happy with my 2 children and that business is now closed. 

That said, our family is still growing since we adopted a little kitten! Let me introduce you all to Shadow (and all the food crumbs under my kitchen table lol)

We owned cats before but if was my life before kids and it was a little easier. 

But the kids have asked for a pet before and now there is really no reason not to have one! 

Shadow fits right in with his "independent moods" and playful energy. 

Here he is, showing off his brand new collar that made him "officially" part of the family!

Cuddling up with my daughter

Playing with my son and his brand new mouse toy

Enjoying the new scratch post my husband bought for him

...and finally just requesting my attention!

If you'd like to see more picture of him and his everyday adventure, hop on Facebook! 

Christmas presents.

I'm enjoying watching on Facebook and reading through blog about the wonderful gifts my friends and family got and I think it's time to make my very own post about it.

Telling the truth, there is very little material things that I wanted this Christmas season, which is weird as I'm a person that loves to put my hands on the latest gadget (and if Santa is reading this, a Kindle or better yet an iPad, will come handy in the next months!) 

But right before Christmas I had a job interview and there was NOTHING, nothing I wanted more, than the job! 

I tried to keep my feet on the ground, but I couldn't help thinking how wonderful it would be to have the news about me getting the job?? What better way to celebrate for the holidays?? 

Well, I didn't have to wonder much, because my wish came true! 

A lots of beautiful things will be happening in the next month....I will be going back to school to take some courses. I got my temporary teaching certificate and will take tests to make it a professional certificate. In the meanwhile, I accepted a job as an ESOL teacher to an High School down town. 

Yes, there will be some more driving and some schedule adjustment to go, some running around and some going crazy at times, but I will be finally earn a salary rather than be paid hourly and the salary start at 5 times more what I was making so far! 

What's an ESOL teacher you might ask? ESOL stands for English for Speakers of Other Languages. I will be teaching basic English skills to students that, like me, came to the States from other countries and have a hard time getting to understand how everything works here in America.

I don't have words to describe how happy excited and a little bit scared I am!
But I'm ready, bring it on!

Now that we have opened all the gifts and ate all the food (I will have a blog post about my Christmas up soon) it's time to treat yourself with a little After Christmas Sale!

Time to say good bye

Yesterday was my very last day at my job as a lunchroom at Edge Elementary.

 Leaving is always bitter sweet, but I was showered with hugs, presents and small gifts. 

I feel so blessed by my Edge family and I shred some tears saying good bye to co-workers, friends and little ones. 

Although leaving is always sad, good news are on the horizon. 

I'm going to be starting a new chapter of my life in 2014. 

But, this is a story for another blog post....
