First, I am so happy I did a happy blog for 7 days! True, I combined day 1-3 but still, if I am going to do this for 365 days the first seven down is not bad! Writing this early today because I am giddy with excitement and happy to share it with (people who read this?) well my blog lol. Today we started out our morning at the pool. Joel, Connor, and I had it all to ourselves and was so wonderful to see how far Joel has come in a summer! He can jump in a pool and swim from one end to the other! He dives down and grabs rings at the bottom of the pool. The thing I am the MOST happy about, though, is that he LOVES to swim! It was a rough couple of summers there with more tears to dry than swimsuits! Connor is turning into a little fish as well and make me help him JUMP into the pool for as long as my one arm could stand it. Again ROCK ON left arm! Happy children moments I hope sear into my memory forever...just too precious to want to forget!
Second happy moment: I am happy because today is my FIRST day back to work in 2 years! I took a YEAR off and it sort of turned into two. I had one job interview this summer, but two days before I went in, I broke my arm. Do you believe in destiny? I sure do! This job is walking distance to my home, a private practice which means I don't have to deal with any extra school teacher's besides Joel's, and I work for a total of 2.5 hours each time! It is a happy job! I am happy to be helping to pay off all of our...ok to be honest MY medical bills. Finally, with taking this job I get to help people improve and is there anything better than that? I made a sort of vow after I finished grad school that I would not go through 7 years of school to work for a little bit and not do it just because I had children. I didn't know what I could do after having two because I truly loved being HOME and catching the moments I missed with Joel. This job was meant for me, to help me keep my promise to never quit working with people, and let's me be a mom to my kids all at the same time. I am happy someone up there is watching out for me! So hi ho hi ho, off to work I go...and on that happy note.......
