Workiversary

Today is my one-year anniversary at work, and my goodness what a year it has been.  The week I started, Ellie got a horrible cold/eye infection, and the next week Eli got sick. Go figure! Along with the job and schedule, Eli started kindergarten, which was a huge, huge change for our family.

Our life looks so much different today than it did this time last year.  Our house is messier, our laundry piles are higher, and our dinners are faster than ever.  But I wouldn’t change a thing.

I’ve not entirely mastered my daily routine, but I am getting closer and closer every day.  And the idea of having it all together is a tragic myth anyway.  What I have mastered, is accepting the blessing that has come to our family.

We are able to better provide for our children and prepare for our future as a family and as a couple.  I say all the time that I have the best of all worlds.  I get to put my family first every single day.  I get to be there in the morning and experience the chaos that comes with getting two little people out the door.  I get to use my marketing and reporting skills in a new and positive way, and I get to invest in our community everyday my serving the children in Warren County.

Not to mention that the people I work with are AWESOME!!

Not a day goes by that I don’t thank the Lord for this opportunity for me and my family!  Happy one year to me!
