My Blessings

 I love it when I wake up in the morning to cute little surprises like these notes.  I had to follow about 6 arrows to the "x" marks the spot to find my surprise.  It ended up being a cute "Thank You" note in dry erase marker, on their mirror. Written from our two oldest daughters to me,  saying thank you for all that you do mommy,  we love you.    Our daughters have seen the love notes I have left for my husband on the mirror or have read things that we have blogged about.  They have a unusually good ability to sense when I really need some extra hugs or love and it's something that I really appreciate about them.  I am so blessed to have great kids.  They are so helpful and they bless our lives in so many ways.  Even when they are being a handful they teach us patience...and maybe long suffering...hahaha! jk!  We love them very much!

On a more personal note,  I have been so excited about getting some goals accomplished or at least getting started on the long process.   I have always wanted to become a Nurse.  I think I would love to work with children or even in Geriatrics.  Although Geriatrics might be more difficult, I hear it's a good field to work in.  Pediatrics is definitely a more natural thing for me.  Working with in home care for senior citizens, might be the better option, so that I can have more time with my family.  Whatever course I take,  I am sure it will be the right one for our family.  I am ready to get it done. 

I think the best benefit is that I will have a better knowledge of health so that I can take better care of my husband and kids.  I love being a stay-at-home mother, but I feel like this is the right thing to do.   

I am looking forward to the future and what it may bring.  I just pray that things continue to get better for us.  I am beyond grateful for things that have improved and I truly enjoy having such a wonderful husband kids.  They are my happiness & my greatest blessings.

To my baby: FT&P always & forever
