Renewing my license

I have officially begun the process of renewing my sub license.  I have such mixed emotions about this.  I have loved, truly beyond words, being able to be a full-time SAHM for the last three years.  I know without a doubt it has been the best thing for our family for the past three years.  Not working is what my family needed.  I also know that it is time though, and for the first time since we've moved here, I'm actually a little excited about it.  That doesn't mean it isn't without some mixed emotions because it is going to be different this time.  I prefer to be with the younger ones, and I had such a network established at our old district.  Here now though, I need to be on the same schedule as the kids, and that means upper level classes.  I refuse to be at the middle school because I think it's such a rotten age, so that means strictly at the high school...with my husband.  That is going to be a little weird for us, and there are even going to be days when I might be in for him.  Something new!  I'll still have my job at the church and my volunteer responsibilities, so my goal is to only work two days a week.  I want to be "mom" and that is my goal for the next 5-1/2 years until Thomas graduates.  I also want to make some improvements to our home, and in order to do that, I need to work.  I should be working by November at the latest, and I'm hoping it will be just as fun as before!
