A Working Mom

After much prayer I was offered to be rehired at Grace Brethren Christian School as a K4 teacher. I knew there was a possibility for the opportunity but was given the official offer last Friday-5 days before teachers were to report back to school! It's funny how God works sometimes. In many ways we are back where we were in May. Davey is even back teaching 2 classes at WBC. The difference is we now have a new addition our little family. Right now Davey will be staying home with Daniel since his classes are Monday night and Saturday morning. If I am truly honest I am a little jealous that he gets to be home with Daniel though I know if the roles could be reversed they would be. We are still (and hopefully always will be) trying our best to follow where we believe God is guiding us even though it is hard not knowing or understanding the way he works.

So, this week I went back to work for the first time after Daniel was born, leaving my baby boy home with his daddy. Wow, that was hard! And I only worked for 2 days. It is going to take me quite a while to get used to this. Though, I don't think it will ever be all that easy. It was hard for Daniel too. He was fussy and very clingy both days I was at work. Breaks my heart. I will honestly never understand mothers who want to work but can afford to say home. As much as I love teaching, if I had the option of staying home with my baby I would do it in a heart beat!


On another note here are some pictures of Daniel enjoying the beach with Grandma Ermold.
Putting his feet in the sand and feeling the waves wash in.
He is definitely my water baby!

"This is my excited face."


"That was exhausting."
