SAHM to WOHM (sort of)

I'm about to go from full time stay-at-home mom to a work-out-of-the-home mom. Well, it's part-time, one day, part of one day really, and I won't be leaving my kids, but I am about to be gainfully employed. My current employment only pays in hugs and kisses with the occasional bonus nap, but I'm about to add US legal tender to those payments!

A few weeks ago I mentioned to the director of a Christian preschool/elementary school, where I do some volunteer design work, that I wouldn't mind subbing at the school if needed. My only stipulation was that my kids would need to be put into a class for the day I was subbing. That's not a big deal. I have some friends that work at the school and their kids attend there too. Well, I just got an email from the director letting me know that there's a long term sub position open at the preschool for one day a week. She asked me if I'd be interested in it. All my kids would get to go to preschool for no charge and the best part about it is that the position is in the baby class. That means that I would be able to keep the baby with me and I wouldn't need to pump (yay!). The pay's not great, but add in that my kids go to preschool for free, I still get to be with the baby AND I get paid something! I think it's a big win, win.

This will be my first job, job in over three years. It's kind of weird. I mean, I've done things here and there to make a little extra money, but not a job, job. You know the kind where you clock in somewhere in the morning and clock out in the afternoon. Not that this is as job, job as it gets. I do, after all, get to have my kids with me, but you know, it's still kinda weird.
