My Dream Has Come True

Well I am very excited to say that I am finally a SAHM! Today was my last day at work! I am leaving the career world to be with my kids full time. I am so excited that Mark and I could finally figure out a budget that would allow me to raise my kids and not some one else. I don't think its going to be easy. Its going to be a big adjustment to tell myself NO you can't buy that, but I think that once we are in a groove it will come more natural. I am very excited to take more pictures of my kids, laugh with them more, play with them more and most importantly be there for everything. The first 5 yrs of a child's life are so important as far as molding who they will be. I want Mark and I to mold them during these impressionable years! I am grateful to Mark, he will be needing to pick up more work hours, but I also feel like that is his job. The man makes the dough and the woman raises kids. Sounds old fashion, but I feel that its the best way to go about things.

During this time I am going to be slowly going back to school to reach my goal of becoming a nurse. I have always wanted a job that would make a difference. I love the idea that I would have a career that would be caring for people. My goal is to go to one class a semester then once the boys are in school full time I would begin the nursing program. This is far down the road and who knows what the future will bring, but I always think its a good idea and healthy to work towards something.

For now.. its me and the kids! I will be having a blast with the two greatest blessings in my life.. and I am so excited!!!!!
