This is where I feel we are at...
A happy "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" (in a *sigh* sort of way) stage.
My life is falling into place.
These have been my changes:
I have stability in the form of a career:
A truely "God-given" job has landed in my lap. It's a company full of people I love with an attitude/outlook just like my own. It's a faith-based company with awesome ideals and trust in their employees. They are flexible, comfortable and real. What a blessing.
I have the time and re-kindled enthusiasm to continually strive to be an excellent mother:
With financial stresses at bay (for possibly the first time ever) and regular hours I find myself settling into small, but significant, routines with K. The day-to-day sameness initially made me squirm but I'm finding peace and fulfillment in consonance...and that this leads to better parenting.
I have re-embraced my faith and found a balance within it. This is a part of me that I desperately missed without really realizing it. A new church plant here (it's called the Element) has been part of that fill. Outreach and selflessness are again bringing restoration to my soul.
I have re-attained past and developed new avidity for my passions, partially as a result of all of the above.
It's exciting in a new way...excitement oddly derived from tranquility.
