Last night, I was farewelled from my coffee group, as I am going to a different unit soon. A word that was used to describe me was "dedicated". That is a very honorable word to give a small person like me. It brought tears to my eyes. I can tell you I am dedicated to my husband, even if I complain in the process. I am dedicated to being a friend, though at times, I may stick my foot in mouth. I am dedicated to my children; however, I may not have all the answers. I could go on and on with ways that I think I am dedicated. However, having someone else tell me I am dedicated is very humbling.
Today, I woke up and got excited because it is the first day of school. Many of you know that I used to homeschool my children. Though, I love the theory of homeschooling, my kids didn't have a very good teacher. They had a great substitute, chaperone, bus driver, and lunch lady. Would I love to have a successful homeschooling family? Yes! without a doubt. However, that will not happen here. So, I am excited for them to got to school! I love seeing my children's smiling faces when I say it is time to go to school. Will I miss them while they are at school? Not today. Honestly, I need a break. I was a single mom of 5 kids for a year. A year of hardship, a year of pain, a year of busyness, a year. Will I miss them eventually? Ask me in a month.
I know this blog post doesn't really have any rhyme or reason, but I wanted to get somethings put down on paper(screen) and out of my head.
u are totally dedicated! perfect!
