Halloween carnival 2008.

Everyone loves Missa's house!!

So I am making an announcement. Some of you may already know.

I have been the a stay at home mom for just over 4 1/2 years.

My house has been full of kids ever since. I taught preschool for a few years and I've offered daycare to neighbors, friends, family and strangers that were referred to me. Now we are entering a new chapter in our life. As I said in a previous post Matt is returning to school next month, due to the class load and work load that comes with that he is going to have to quit his full time job... That's where I come in. I will be returning to work full timeMonday. I got offered a job at a new Daycare center that openned a few weeks ago.

I am excited, nervous, scared and hopeful. Matt and I didn't make this decision alone. We have prayed real hard over this and things just seem to be falling into place.

I am very thankful for those of you that have offered to help out and have expressed their love and words of strength to us. This has not been an easy thing to just say this is what I need to do.

But I know I am doing the right thing. I will eventually be able to bring the boys to the center with me. I need to wait for benefits to kick in.

I know this is going to be a major sacrafice we will be strapped and the next few years will NOT be easy and it will be a test on my faith and my strength. But I want to be all that I can for my family and do what I need to do.

I know I can do this. Heavenly Father will not give me more than I can handle. I just need to remember that when times get tough I know where to turn. That's one of the wonderful privledges that comes from being a child of God.
