BACK AT IT!

Wow, it’s been a while. Almost 14 months. Whoops….

The past 14 months have been a whirlwind of changes. We sold our home and bought a new one. I went from nannying 8 hours a week to over 40 hours a week. Then I started a Master’s program. The day I get home from my week of classes, I find out after 3 years of trying… I am pregnant! (For the record, I stayed in school and plan to continue as normal after D-day). The emotions (both highs and lows) of this past year were a lot to handle. At times, I felt I could barely keep my head above water. But God graced me with perseverance and a husband who wholeheartedly supports me in everything I do. I’ve learned so much about life and about myself.  

This week I enter my last month of pregnancy and am no longer nannying. My 5-year-old starts full day kindergarten and I will be alone for the first time in 5 ½ years, even if it is for only 3-4 weeks. My life is, once again, changing drastically. I’ve been joking that once the baby comes, life will be easy again. I am looking forward to the weeks to come, for the sudden boredom. For preparing for this miracle we prayed so long for. I am looking forward to getting back to writing (not in APA format!!!!) and spilling my heart out on the interwebs. I have grown so much in the past year and I am excited for this new season! 

Also, I cannot wait to start cooking again! Like, not just chicken breasts and ground beef. But really cooking and creating my art. So get ready….I’ll have some recipes for you soon!

Last night the sun set and today I woke up to something new.
