Well after 11yrs of not working I have returned to work! I said I wouldn't go to work til the kids were all in jr high/high school so at least someone was driving to help with all the sports and I wanted to have my time volunteering at their school and for someone not to be raising my children over than me but the time has come and a new chapter of my life has opened and I felt that it was time to go back to work! I needed a change! With my youngest getting older and us getting out of the playdate age and more to the preschool age she was thriving for more and I put her in a 2 day preschool and she really enjoyed it. I had been back and forth on returning to work and looking for a job and turning down a few and one opened up at the Martial Arts Studio that we were going to and it happened to be on the 2 days she was going so I applied for the job and took it and it was going great and I got offered full time so I am now working 6 days a week and she is going to preschool full time and loving it! I am loving being back at work and getting the time out of the house, the time to myself and the social time! It was just time! The family is adjusting fairly well to the new changes and my husband to playing "mr mom" after school transporting them to all the activities and I am super proud of him for keeping up such a great job! So lots of changes around here lately but loving the new chapter in our lives!
