So, I'm on the trail of a new beginning. After 4 years at a job that (I not only loved but also) changed my life. I left it to complete my 2nd degree. An endorsement in Special Education. Recently, I have been reflecting on why I chose such a path. I don't know what sparked inside of me, but the burning need to be a person that not only is involved in the education process but someone who can bring out their desire to do more in life. As a mom of a child with a disability, it drives me bonkers knowing that there is nothing I can do to take away the disability. Nor can I help my husband be ok. I just need to breathe.
Which brings me to where I am. I am in a place that can bring some hope to individuals and families that struggle with a disability. The hats I put on, will not only enable myself to help a student, but the family as well. I am excited, nervous, and anxious about my next step. But most of all, I am eager to get the last completed. Ready to move forward and change lives. Mine included.
