Okay, So it has been a crazy, long, life altering, exciting two months since I quit my full time job and decided that....Hey being a stay at home mom is the right thing for me! So I have been doing this gig as a stay at home mom, trying to figure out what to do setting a schedule and trying to figure out all the in-betweens of mom life.  But I finally figured out that there is no way to establish life you just go with it. My two year old has taught me that no matter what schedule I think we are on it really is about how things are going for her. Then last night I sprained my ankle. Not to be a whiner but its kind of swollen and painful so I am couch bound for a few days, but the baby isn't. She is my super helper...lol...spilling my drink, eating my lunch, and bumping my foot. Its been a blast so far and the big kids are out of school in a few hours. Yay!...the fun will soon begin. But beyond that I am realizing that in the past I have been so consumed with my place in this world and achieving success at all costs that I forgot about what the real things in life are like, dinner with the kids, homework help, 100's on spelling tests, football practice, science fairs, birthday parties, potty training and above all building lasting relationships with my children and my a stronger relationship with my husband. This is new to me but I am excited and looking forward to what I can make out of this life that is mine!
