By request I am going to try to enter the blog world again! It has been some time and there has been SO much change in our lives!
My tiny infant that I once wrote about is now 20 months old and is so incredibly active, intelligent, and ornery! Never did I think I could feel so much love in my heart for anyone. Sometimes tears still come to my eyes as I sit and watch him play or even sleep and I think about how miraculous he really is! Never is there a dull moment in our home and never is there an opportunity to just relax and be free, but I wouldn't trade it for the world!
I have also started teaching! I teach 2nd grade in a local charter school. I was very apprehensive about teaching in a charter school because of all the bad things I had heard people say, but let me tell you I found the perfect school. Actually, I believe I was lead to the school that was built for me. The school just started last year and it is a school dedicated to changing the lives of these children. We aren't just giving them an education we are giving them a chance at life! Taking children from the poorest communities and showing them the world and then giving them the tools they need to succeed in the world. Everyday I feel God working through me and everyday I know that I am where he lead me to be.
My husband has also started a new job. He is working in a factory, but has a nice schedule where he only works 3-4 days a week. This allows us to see each other a little more often and to spend time together as a family.
We are in a good spot finally. The past couple of years have been full of hurdles, raw emotions, family feuds, and stress but we are finally coming out on top. We prayed our hearts out and didn't give up and finally the puzzle is coming together. I have high hopes for our family this year. Stay tuned to watch it unfold!
