Internship

Today was a great day! I got accepted as an intern at United Way with the Welcome Baby department. I am soo excited!!! I was having zero luck with getting an internship so I count this as a great blessing. I contacted United Way only to find out that they had already filled their positions. I was losing hope. Then the next morning, they called back saying one of the girls just called and dropped out, so they wanted me to come in for an interview right away. They interviewed another girl as well and after a long, long week of stress and anticipation, I was offered the position!! I am going to be busy, but know I will love it. I don't know too much about what my responsibilities will be, but I do know a few. I will be going to prenatal classes at the hospitals recruiting women to join Welcome Baby, I will do home visitations with mothers and babies teaching newborn and parenting classes, I will have weekly parent-child playgroups, and who knows what else. One unique opportunity that I know for sure is that I will be the head of social media for Welcome Baby. I have a lot to learn and can't wait to interact with so many different people. I am so grateful for this opportunity and am especially grateful for all the support and prayers that were offered in my behalf.
