Praises!

I just got lined up with another tutoring job. I've been tutoring for a sweet, sweet family from church. Their daughter needed some bolstering in math, and it's truly been a blessing and delight. She is so sweet and fun, and I am a geek who loves math. After meeting weekly since January or February, she now tells people, "I like math now!" If THAT doesn't bless my socks off, I don't know what does. :)

The family's neighbor has asked me to come try working with her elementary-aged daughter and high school-aged son (yea, algebra!) on Tuesdays (after previously mentioned tutoring) and Wednesdays (some kind of funky block scheduling where the son has math only on MWF). She's had a girl from UF coming, but she's graduating and leaving this week.

So, we'll try it. School is only in session for another month. Can't be that bad, right? And the most exciting thing of all to me is that the church family's mom said she could probably hook me up with as much tutoring as I want (and more!). :) We have "always said" that, Lord willing, when we have children and I'm staying home, tutoring could be a nice way to supplement Matt's income. But I wasn't sure how to go about getting my name out there. The families at my school tend to be trying to just make ends meet; tutoring is not in many of their budgets. But now, even though it's on the other end of town, the Lord is building some business for me! How exciting! :)

God is good (not just because of tutoring). :)
