Being a stay-at-home-mom this year has completely surpassed my every expectation. Honestly, words aren't coming easily for me now as I try to sum up how incredibly grateful I am for the time I had at home with my two youngest. Yes, school was missed (sometimes) and I longed for adult conversation (sometimes), and I felt a little cooped up (sometimes) but I cherished this special time.
If I ruled the world (under God's direction of course)... I'd figure out a way that I could work full time and be a stay-at-home mom full time as well. Mathematically I guess that would be an impossible feat. BUT, as my mom always says, being a teacher is pretty close.
Thankful I have this summer.
Thankful I love my teaching job.
Thankful for three incredible "babies" and an amazing husband.
I summed up my year at home with the kiddos in this "movie trailer" called "That Year".
