On June 15th, the last day of the school for the kids, I also had my 'last' day. I said good-bye to my job of almost 13 years. It's definitely been an adjustment, but I'm loving being home with the kids for the summer. Other than being in school, I've never not worked. I've never not had my own paycheck, and we certainly have never had to be a single income family, so there's a lot of adjusting for Aaron as well. I never thought I would leave my job, ever. But things change, people change, and it was becoming increasingly obvious to me that it was time for that chapter of my life to end. It was a really sad and scary decision to make. The kids were on my medical benefits, and we had a great plan at my company. I wish I could say the same for Aaron's plan, but I can't - his stinks in comparison! I can only say that I know when God closes one door another opens, so I'm not sure what the future has in store, but I have faith that this was the right decision to make.
I've made so many great friends at the company and despite not being there every day, I know that will not change. I went away to the beach last weekend with two of my friends, Rhonda and Nicole and I have plans in a few weeks for a girls night out with them and more girls from the office, which I'm really looking forward to.
So for now I'm just going to enjoy my babies and our summer together!
