New Job, or well First real job!
To appease the masses, I decided to write a quick post. First and foremost, my apologies for the lack of posting these past few weeks. I am living with my sister during the week, and caring for her 7 lb twins! They are getting so big! I really feel like a mom, except I luckily get a break on the weekends. They are precious little girls, and we are so amazed that God has kept them healthy and growing! (For those that read this and don't know the history, the twins were born 2.5 months premature on December 6th, they were 2lbs 9 oz and 2 lbs 14 oz at birth). So because I am getting between 4 and 6 hours of sleep at night, and feeding or holding babies almost all the time, I have had little energy to think about things in depth, much less type it all out. So, this post will be short, and will be more of an update on my life.
I got a job last Friday!!!!!! Yeah!!! I interviewed several weeks ago at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta (Egleston campus) for a part time Emergency Dept position as a Child Life Specialist. I will be working Fridays and Saturdays for 10-12 hours. Basically, I will be helping children who come to the ER cope with their ailment, injury, or trauma. I will distract them and talk to them during procedures, and when there is time, I will prepare them for procedures. I will also have the opportunity some nights to do some work up in the ICU and Cardiology units. This job is such a blessing because I will be available most days of the week to continue helping my sister with the twins, and I get health and dental insurance, AND I will gain a lot of well rounded experience and will in turn be more marketable as a Child Life Specialist. It is a great opportunity for me and I am so thankful to God that His plan was to keep me in Atlanta for the time being. I start orientation and training in a little over a week!
That's all for now, I hope to have something deep and profound soon!
