NEW Beginnings!

So I obviously haven't posted in forever but here I am!

This post is basically about NEW beginnings that I am SO excited about! I can't describe how thrilled I am to be able to do this! I have taught PreK for the past 5 years and also received my B.S. in Education so I've done it awhile (or at least I think for awhile haha) ... but the point is I've been there done that. We had our evaluations this month and have been asked if we are returning next year and what we want to do basically. I thought about teaching only 3 days next year instead of the 5 that I have been doing but I actually decided this past week that I do not want to teach anymore. Nothing against teaching for sure haha..I enjoyed it while I did it and love working with kids but I think it's just time for me to move on for now and I want to stay home with my girls. Now technically my girls are old enough to be in school so they won't be with me during the day BUT my oldest will be in 1st grade next year and my youngest in K4 so she only goes a half day. But basically I'm going to be a stay at home mom! Which I have NEVER been able to do! I am so excited! Since my oldest daughter has been born I have either been in school or teaching so I've never stayed home. I'm very excited that I am blessed enough to be able to do this but I just feel like God is pulling me in that direction and has been for awhile. I've just never had the opportunity to stay home. I just want to concentration on my house, my girls and my husband. Family! That's what I want to concentrate on so I'm very excited to start this journey! Definitely will be blogging more! I also started babysitting after school this year for extra money. So I watch a little girl after school just for 2-3 hours and make pretty good money to watch her and it's so great because my girls love her and love playing with her so it works out. But I will probably watch her next year too just for a couple of hours, still extra money but I will get SO much more done during the day while the girls are at school so I won't be so tired at night by time I get to my oldest daughter's homework haha. So it's going to be very relaxing and exciting for sure! No rushing anymore and then babysitting is awesome because it's extra money for extra little things we want to do as a family and clothes, food, etc. and the girls love playing together for a little while so it def works out! I'm very thankful and blessed!

More to come...on another note I've started exercising consistently and just watching what I eat so I'm dropping the pounds that need to come off haha. Hope everybody is doing well!
