Things I've learned...


I've learned that I really do enjoy my treadmill and water. I hope that I continue to enjoy them. I've got 5 miles in so far this week. I went to sign Carson up for swimming lessons and learned that I'd have to be in the water with him at times....so it is time to work on the parts of my body that still look like I could have a baby on board!


I've learned that I am really sad to sell our house and move. I am so excited to be back home closer to our families. But to leave everything we have worked for over the past 10 years, all the friends we have made as a married couple and adults really is very bitter sweet for me.


I have learned that the world will keep turning once I leave my little post at work. Someone else will do my job and the place won't burn down, although sometimes I wish it would. Not really, but I hope you know what I mean! I have learned that once I am gone, I will not necessarily lose my friends at work but we will lose touch, I will be out of the loop. That makes me sad! As silly as it sounds, and I know it does I hope when my job is filled that my Salesmen don't like her as much as me, I hope that they don't think she can fill my shoes. I don't wish her ill will i really don't she is a very nice girl. I just want them to miss me. I know it's silly and obsessive, but I can't help it!


I've learned that if something is hurtful, confusing or upsetting, you should go to the source and make it right. It doesn't do anyone any good to let it fester.


So that was a very random post! On a very exciting note this morning Grace very clearly said "Brod her" (brother) She loves him so much! The feeling is mutual! Last night Carson was pushing her around the living room in the laundry basket. It was super cute!
(sorry the picture of the kids is so old, I'm at work without my pictures)

You know, I have been sad about leaving our old house also. We are in a much bigger, nicer, more convenient place now, but we left a lot of memories behind in that little house. I understand your sadness.

I'm sure you will be missed at your job!

So cute that Grace is saying brother...I love the bond that my children have. It warms the heart!

Iknow that no one will fill your job the way you did! I'm certain you will be missed! But on the bright side, NOBODY can do your job of raising your kids the way you can. I love my job, but my favorite years were the ones I stayed home to raise you and your sister! I just wish I would have been there as you got older, in jr. and sr. high school. I just loved being a SAHM.

I'm sure everyone at work will miss you. Its hard to accept change at first but once you do, there is no looking back because you will miss what is lying ahead in your life! I am so excited for you and praying that the transition will go smoothly for you!
