My last case of the Mondays

So-it was Monday-you know that dreaded day to start your work week off. The one where you feel tired because you packed your weekend too full. But this Monday was different. This was my last Monday teaching...and not just for the summer. My new job starts Monday June 6th. I didn't interview for this job-God just gave it to me! He has provided and given our family what I know He intended for our family-the time for me to raise our kids at home as a mommy.

I went to the hospital tonight to see a friend who is about to have her first baby-a boy. It was so surreal. Even though my baby is 9 months old now, it still seems like yesterday I was going to the same hospital to check in to meet this precious gift God gave to us. Then I get the word that my best friend from high school is going to have her twins tomorrow morning! I am so giddy with excitement for my friends who are about to begin their new journey as mommies tonight and tomorrow!

As this new chapter is beginning in my life, I think I am more nervous and excited for this job than any other job I have ever had. I can't wait to be a full time helpmate to my husband and I can't wait to raise our daughter at home. However, I don't really feel qualified for this job. I have so much to learn (like cooking!) and so much patience to practice as a full time parent at home, who is setting up a new house and learning a new town all at once! Wonder why God thought of me for this job? All I know-through Him I will learn everything I need to get through whatever is ahead for our family-and I can't wait to see what is ahead.

Thanks to my wonderful hubby! You are the best gift in human form that God could have ever given me!
