Awesome Day
Recently someone told me they didn't see how I go to work after having a baby. I had no choice. J had his own business and I was the breadwinner. It sucked to say the least. A year later we closed the business, Jason went to work for Whole Foods, it got better. I changed my hours, we both worked our butts off to save some money and we sold some land. After 11 years I got to move back home. Given I now have to work 36 hours a week, but I get to start doing what I love. I do miss some days with my girl. I lose sleep b/c I am trying too get ahead so I can make more money to hopefully work less hours as she gets older. All and all today I knew we were doing the right thing. See I feel so selfish sometimes. If we had stayed in Ennis, I could probably stay home or at least work a day a week. I hated that house. To the point I would not invite others over due to I HATED that house. I have a house I am now proud of and a place I love to call home. Jason and I talk about how this truly feels like home. The 11 years we have been together, we have never been home. Now we are. Today, my girl, my beautiful Tia Grace, played in our yard for 2 hours. Running and playing and driving her Barbie car. Completely happy in her "Backyardigans" I am jealous of those who get to be there every day for every second. Please know I never judge any of you. Someday I will be at every game and every play, but today I have to miss some moments and relish in the ones I get like today watching Jason chase Tia around the yard trying to keep her out of the trees. :) (and know we made the right choice)
