So it is the end of the first week back at school for Aeryn and I. And boy has it been interesting. But all in all I like being back to work at the school. I enjoy the people that I work with both as coworkers and the students that I influence. It is another semester of Math and Latin. Two subjects and three teachers that I feel very comfortable with. So I could not have asked for a better schedule.
Being back at school and having shifts at Tractor Supply is making me appreciate the time that I spend with my children a little bit more. Yesterday, after coming home from work at the school, I got to sit down on the floor with Alex and play with his matchbox cars. It was very enjoyable. Later that evening I got to sit with Aeryn and watch Glee, and Masterchef two shows that the two of us seem to enjoy together. I got to surprise Aeryn with some homemade chickens soup for dinner a couple of nights ago.
Working two jobs certainly puts things into perspective. Sometimes we have to work just a little bit harder and have more appreciation for the fewer minutes that we have together. But in the end I know that this sacrifice of a little less time now will pay off for my little family.
