MY LAST DAY!!


(yes, the necklace is one of Nichole's :) MY FAVORITE SO FAR!)
TODAY IS MY LAST DAY AS A CAREER MOM!! After 5pm today, I will officially be a SAHM!! :) My heart is literally LEAPING out of my chest w/ joy and happiness! Shelby didn't sleep well AT ALL last night so I'm exhausted! This week has had it's up's and down's: finding out the insurance we were going to add me and Shelby too and take her off of Josh's will not accept me w/ maternity b/c of me having infertility but then finding out to be added to josh's isn't as much as we thought and almost equalivent to what we were going to use; shelby getting sick Wed. afternoon and me having to stay home THE DAY BEFORE MY LAST DAY & having to take her to the dr. yesterday to find out she has a sore throat/cold and what could have turned into strep throat and to find out she has a top-left molar in that we didn't know existed, but is back to herself today, on antibiotics, but is still stayin home w/ Gwammy to be safe while i finish up work stuff that I should have done yesterday but had a great day holding and cuddling my sweet Sheebee Shake, AND Josh gone to Oklahoma this weekend for the Oklahoma Steak Cook-off in Tulsa :( (so if you're in the area, look for the BLUE AND GOLD b/c LOOK OUT TULSA!! THE MULERIDERS ARE COMING!!... but Shelby and I are going to Texarkana to spend the weekend w/ my parents!!
Today is soo bittersweet! I have enjoyed my almost 5 years (would have been 5 years Sept. 1st) working here at SAU and w/ my boss. I've learned so much about myself and others and have grown tremendously but also realized my calling and place right now is w/ Shelby, my home, family and helping w/ my church's children's ministry. I will never again have these days w/ Shelby and I don't want to miss anymore than I already have with her and her development. Being a Summer SAHM was tough, so I know this is no gravy-train but I'm always up for a challenge and when you do what you love, that outweighs the difficulty. I'm sooo ready for this new adventure and change in our lives! Please pray for us as we transition into a single income family/household. God has tremendously provided for us and blessed us and we will be fine b/c we are doing what He has called us to do! Also, please pray for Bizzy B's. I want this little passion of mine to glorify God w/ all my heart and also provide a little for us. As of right now, a leap of faith is what I'm jumpin out on b/c I have only two orders and that scares me but God always provides and never ceases to amaze me! He's given me a great opportunity to send some items to Nichole in Indiana for an auction there that I HOPE will get my name out there and keep me on my toes. :) I'm sending a clutch, zipper coin purse & checkbook cover set as well as some hair bows I have already made up from the festival Nichole participated in that got rained out. Just pray.... my heart is in the right place but the world in me is kinda anxious and nervous....God will provide! He always does!
