Lovin' my job

Being a stay at home mommy to three kiddos, two of which are under the age of 5, is hard work. Throw in my other job of maintaining a clean house and feeding all of my family, life can get a little stressful. I noticed that last year I really let this all bother me and it really brought me down. After many thoughtful conversations with Jesus, it became blatenly obvious that I was behind this depression. I have to change my attitude. This has been so much easier said than done. But so far it has been so worth it. I am using my camera to really help with this change. I am really focusing on what is on the other side of that camera.

These two get along better and better with every passing day.

I am also using that long lost teacher inside me to help as well. Focusing on teaching my girls and using my lesson planning skills has kept me busy which allows no space for overwhelming thoughts.

Playmobile equals FANTASTICNESS in our house

I am very proud of myself and I know that I can keep going with this change. My kids teach me more and more everyday of what it means to be a loving person and what it means to have a happy attitude.

Tomorrow is my baby's birthday. He is 11. I can not believe it has been 11 years since his beautiful soul entered my life. Happy Birthday my sweet son. More pics to come of his birthday celebration with us and some of his friends :)
