Last week was the one year anniversary of being a stay-at-home mommy. Wow, how time has flown. As you can imagine, my husband and children stood and gave lengthy speeches numbering my accomplishments. (In reality, I told Andy it was my anniversary and you could just hear his brain racing, terrified that he forgot a special occasion!)
The year has definitely been challenging- too many changes in too short a time- after I came home, within a few months, Andy changed jobs as well, and then Alexa was born (combined with a tough pregnancy and recovery). Whew.
Ultimately, though I miss a few things about work (some special people mainly), I continue to LOVE my job and the peace that comes with doing what I've been asked to do. Life is good.
