here i am

in five days I have a kid starting high school... and a kid in seventh grade... and a kindergartener... five days...

it is kind of funny... 6 years ago, I was pregnant. I had a first grader and a third grader. I had plans to start college back in order to get a law degree. I was heading to school and back to work full time.

yet, here I am with a kid just starting school, and I never did get that law degree... I am still teaching at the local preschool and driving my three kids all over town.

isn't it funny when we have plans that we KNOW will be perfect for us, but then God comes along and changes it from top to bottom.... I fought this plan change kicking, screaming, and cussing...

yet, here I am happy... I love having a high schooler. He is happy and loving scouts. He is maturing in ways that make me proud. I love having a middle school daughter. She is turning into a beautiful lady and dancing her way in to my heart daily. I love having a kindergartener. He is facinating and intelligent. He makes me laugh and turns every day into an adventure.

yet, here I am working... I get paid weekly to play and hug kids... I had planned to argue my life away in law, yet, here I am playing with kids...

here I am... and I am happy

  1. Wow... highschool and 7th grade!? That doesn't seem possible! For some reason, C starting K doesn't shock me... maybe because when I met him, he already knew more than my preks! I'm so glad you're happy with where you are - that is an amazing place to be!!
