Life As I Know It...

This blog is simply my filter. My life as I know it. As a mom, a wife, a sister, a daughter and a friend. I wouldn't trade it for the world. Enjoy!

New Beginnings

Hello blogger... for some reason I can not keep up with you these days!! I am so excited about the weeks to come... Next week is my final week at UCO... and then two more at Rose State and then I start up again with intersession classes and summer classes... It will all pay off, this is what I keep telling myself...

I have made some recent changes in my life which I am excited about but also scared out of my mind.... As of May30th, I will no longer be working in a salon. This frightens me so because this is all I have ever done my entire adult life. It has been so good to me. My clients are literally like family. I am so sad to let them go. I told a friend of mine that I wish I could put them in a jar and take them home with me... I know it sounds creepy but I love them what can I say?? The reason behind this decision is my school schedule... I will be able to graduate December 2013 if I continue to go full time, the problem is the classes I need are only offered during the day and I had to let something in my day schedule go. I have prayed about this and talked to Justin about it until we are both blue in the face... I was having lots of reservations, really just about change in general, I knew what I needed to do- it was just hard to make it happen. I know that I have had lots of confirmations lately and I know this will benefit my family so much in the long run... its just hard to say good-bye...

On a more positive note, Justin was accepted to the master program at UCO and will be working as a graduate student in Educational Leadership, in hopes of one day becoming a principal. I am so proud of him. He is such a wonderful, supportive, motivated and hardworking man. I really do not know how I got so lucky. I love him with all of my heart. So for the next year we will both be going to school... crazy- I know!

The boys are doing great, Charlie is talking more and more... Henry is my strong willed little guy... and James is growing up... These kids will never know what they truly mean to me. I never knew I could love like this... I am so honored to be their mom. I am so excited about what the future holds for our family, it will be so nice to have summers off and winter breaks off... and be on the same routine and schedule as my kiddos... I do not look forward to them growing up but I do look forward to being done with school and being able to enjoy my kids to the fullest...

Until next time...
