It's Official

I did it! Yesterday, I told my principal that I will not be returning next school year. I will be a stay-at-home mom. And I can't wait!

It was tough. Although my heart has always been 100% in wanting to stay home with Maggie, it took awhile until I could confidently put in my resignation. There was a part of me that wanted to be the mom that does it all. There was a part of me that wanted to be the career woman. And as hectic as it can be at times, I really do enjoy my job. Putting all that aside, there were just more reasons for me to stay at home.

I want to be there for all of Maggie's milestones. I want to be the one to help Maggie learn her ABC's. And I want to have the flexibility for other things as well, including focusing on my Shaklee business (another passion of mine).

Maybe when our kids are back in school, I'll go back. But for now, I'm going to bask in the fact that I will be a stay-at-home mama starting June 12th!

Countdown

Has it really been 4 weeks since my last post? There are 36 days left of the school year, and life will ccalm down just a little. I am SOOOOO looking forward to it.

On another note, Maggie is getting more teeth. The lower lateral incisors are coming in. She really hasn't been too fussy, and has only been getting up once a night.

I'll try to come up with a more interesting post next time! :)
