Checking in with some news....

I apologize for being missing in action around here....

I have been making some big decisions, exciting decisions

and scary decisions.....

And because I strongly dislike it when bloggers 'tease' news and

then wait like days........

I will share......

After almost 14 {gulp!} years as a proud stay-at-home

mommy, I am returning to professional, outside the home

work! An ideal situation, for a 20 hour a week

position, in the field that I was in before children, became known

to me in a very serendipitous way and seemed "meant to be".

I promise to share more in a longer post this weekend.

I will you leave you with this thought.....recently I have read about bloggers

who are feeling blessed to finally be able to stay at home with

their little ones, bloggers who are leaving jobs to pursue

their passions and become entrepreneurs, and now me,

a forty-something momma who with kids busy in school and

extra hours in her day, felt the gentle 'tug' of my former

professional self......and is able to make it work for both

her and her family...... We are blessed as women, to have

these choices and freedoms! I celebrate us all!

I am a few years away from that "tug" but so excited for you. Home or no home, it's all work and if you love it,that is the exciting part. Congrats!

Congrats, sweet friend!
I knew when you first
told me about it that it
was going to be "yours."
And I'm hoping it's
seasonal, so we can play
some hooky together
next summer!

Good luck, I hope you enjoy your new venture in life. I did the same last year and I could not be happier.

I'm excited for you and can't wait to hear more! I am feeling content where I am now but there is always the little spout of another dream in the back of my head! It is such a blessing to be able to have choices. I didn't always have that so I am more thankful for it now!

Congrats for your decision in economic times like this. Most of us have or had to go back to work once the children go full time to school. College costs loom over our heads as parents. Cost is a factor.

Bravo for you. In the words of Tim Gunn...Make it work!

Decision well made!!!
