Full Time Mommy
I'm sitting her watching my beautiful 3 year old daughter play on the playground. Although she is playing all by her self, the look on her face when she gets a new idea or finds something new to play with is priceless. I could just sit and watch her for hours...I cherish every second I spend with her.
So today I realized something. My whole life I have worked. Even on our summer breaks our dad had my brother and I create and run our own businesses. My brother had Kyle's Kuts where he obviously mowed people's yards and I had Sweettie Do's where I did odd jobs for our neighbors(watered their plants, cleaned out out their garges, fed their pets while the were away). I got my first real job when I was fourteen and have worked ever since even with athletics through high school.
I never have had any intentions of being a stay at home mom...I always thought I would go nuts.I still think that I wouldn't be able to be a full time mom but the thought of being home with Lilly and my future children sounds so much more appealing to me than working 45 hour work weeks. I know I don't have that option now for I am the other source of income for myself and Lilly...but I am seriously considering once I get married to only work part time. The good thing about being a nurse is I can work part time and still make really good money. I could help with the income for my family but still be there to take care of my children and husband. Who knows what will happen...this is just what has been on my mind all day.
We are waiting for Josh to get home from practice. He hurt his leg yesterday but thank the Lord it wasn't too serious. He had xrays but there were no breaks. He will still be able to play this season. Lilly and I have really enjoyed our time here and I'm dreading going home but duty calls and I have to work tomorrow. Hopefully the time will go quickly until the next time we see him :)
Yall have a great day. God Bless you all.
