Finding My Way

Taking some time for reflection today....

I have come to the conclusion that we are a family in transition. Murray with his work, Tyler going to middle school next year, Abby becoming more independent and finding her voice, Grace getting ready for kindergarten next year...and where does that leave me? I have been a SAHM for almost 10 years, what is next? Everyone is asking me when I am going to go back to work (as if my job is waiting for me!!). I really don't want to work outside the home. Even with all the kids in school, I want to be here when they get home, volunteer at the school, stay home when they are sick, have the summers with them. Just because they are all at school during the day doesn't mean they don't need me to be here for them.

I need to focus on what I want to do and make it happen for myself. Find a way to find my voice and figure out which direction I am going in.

It is exciting to be at this time in my life...I must approach it with a positive attitude and be ready for whatever is around the corner. I believe that you get back what you put out there...I have to stop being scared and worried...believe in myself, take some chances, set some goals and who knows what is next for me.

LIFE IS GOOD!!!!

Now go out and enjoy the day!!
