My Happiness > Your Happiness

After 7.5 months I decided it was time for me just to have a baby free night. As much as I didn't want to leave my son for the night I knew I deserved it. I made sure I didn't go out until an hour before he went to bed, so I didn't feel as guilty. I realized, no body can make me feel like I'm a bad parent for going out for just a night. I'm with my son everyday and if I want to just have time to my self every once in a blue moon, it's ok. It's not like I never see my son because I want to do other things, my son comes first in everything I do.
So last night I went to see ET! I was so excited. That is one of my favorite movies and to see it in theaters was great! It was only one showing, not too late, since I have work this morning I knew I'd get home at a decent time. It was really nice to get out. I couldn't stop thinking about what my son was doing (even though I knew he was just sleeping) I did enjoy myself though. I probably won't go out with out my son for a long time again, so I'm glad I got to enjoy last night.
We have a lot of fun set for this weekend. We are going to the pumpkin patch to get some pumpkins and so mommy can get some good pictures for Kye's first fall. I might make some cards too to send to family. Not sure though.
I'm glad I get to spend my weekends with my son 24 hours, no work (as long as I'm not working job #2) just him and I. Words can't explain how wonderful my life is. I'm so happy I have you in my life now. The happiness my son brings me can not be compared to any other happiness anything else in this world can bring. That's why I can say that my happiness, is greater then your happiness (When I saw 'your' I mean one person in particular). There is nothing better than being able to spend every day with the person you brought into this world and I'm so happy God gave me this blessing.
When something unexpected happens in life I'm glad I didn't run, rather, I accepted it and it has brought me so much joy.
It doesn't get any better than this. ❤

Day One of Homeschooling

Image
  We did it!  Our first day of homeschool is complete. I woke up early and made the kiddos French toast and cut up some fruit. Excuse me, Luke cut you some fruit as you can see in our new vlog post! Luke woke up at 6 and I tried to get him back to sleep but that was clearly a fail as he left the room ten minutes after I did. We ate breakfast and Jack was still asleep. I thought for sure he would sleep late and we could start school without him.  😂 He woke up shortly after and then we were all on the same page by then. We took our pictures outside (Jack was not having it). And then our day began!  The kids were so excited to see their little gifts and the homeschool area all set up. We started our morning with a read aloud. We read Ten Apples up on Top since our topic is apples this quarter. The kids all got a composition book that we will use for the morning read alouds. They can draw or write whatever comes to mind as I read to them. It was cute to see what they al...

Where Have I Allowed Myself To Go?

Image
Wow!  I haven't written forever and I pray I can get back to writing more because what that did for me was incredible. That was my quiet time where I could draw away from all the worries in life and just focus on God and what He has done for me.  This past year or so has been such a struggle for me. Marriage is HARD! I always knew it would be hard but not this hard! It got even harder when I drew away from God. I thought I could do this on my own when obviously this is a precious gift from God and why would I ever think I could do this on my own. I've struggled so much with balancing everything in my life. I've also struggled throughout this pregnancy. I have never been so emotional in my life. I feel like I lost all control over everything that was in order in my life. And I know the exact reason why. It has nothing to do with pregnancy or hormones. It has to do with my faith. I never denied to anyone or myself that I'm not struggling with my faith. I know for a...

Who Are We?

Image
I listened to a sermon on the 4th and I have been trying to put all my thoughts together to write a post about it because it was so meaningful for me. It helped me realize a lot about myself and my faith. I am still trying to get all my ducks in a row for that post but I just wanted to give a little bit of encouragement. It seems like most sermons preached lately are about this craziness but out of that craziness there is a lot to learn! In Exodus 13-16 we read about how Pharaoh finally let the Israelites out of Egypt. All the Isrealites wanted was to be let go and what was one of the first things they did when they got out of Egypt? They complained. They started complaining about how they 'missed' things from Egypt.  Exodus 16:3 says   The Israelites said to them, “If only we had died by the  Lord ’s hand in Egypt!  There we sat around pots of meat and ate all the food  we wanted, but you have brought us out into this desert to starve this entire assem...
