Whew! It has been a while since I last posted...holy smokes! Well, there have been some pretty amazing occurrences in the Dubya household....so where do I begin?
Well for starters, our oldest turned 7-years old on the 26th! Gosh how time flies by! I still remember that scared little 19-year old in that old Chicago hospital...I had no idea what I was in for, and up to the very moment I laid eyes on that precious little newborn...I had no idea what true love was!
That labor/delivery was Hell...I thought I was going to die, actually that is not too far from the truth...I did almost die. It was a very traumatizing event...but all of the pain, the fear and the near-death part did was make me love that little girl even more!
She is truly the apple of my eye, she has grown into such a beautiful, intelligent little girl...and I am more and more impressed everyday with how smart she is!
On top of our angel celebrating her 7th birthday...there was some exciting news for this Momma...
Well on the 21st of March, I was offered (and accepted) a dream job!
I officially am employed with a pretty well-known company...but the best part is...I get to work from home! That is one major benefit of living in California, I never remember having that sort of option in Chicago or the Gulf Coast! I start my training on April 11, and will spend 3-weeks commuting everyday (weekday of course) getting trained so I can begin my job in May....that will be the first time I have had to leave my house like that, and while I am upset about having to do the training...I know the benefits of that job are well worth the 3-weeks of having to be away.
Soo...woohoo! I got a job!! :D
On top of that good news, I graduated from college on March 31st with my Bachelors of Science in Communications!!!
So as you can imagine, I am on cloud nine right about now! All the things that were falling apart the past two years are now falling together. Hubby and I both have pretty good jobs, a nice home, food on the table and two beautiful little girls...what is there not to be thankful for?!
Speaking of...
We will be entertaining our first house guest next week! My Mother-in-Law graciously offered to come watch the house/kids while I was away at training and the Husband at work...she will be flying all the way from Florida to stay with us for that entire 3-week span! Holy smokes! Needless to say, I have been on a cleaning spree for over a week now...I want everything perfect, not just because she is my MIL but also because she will be the first person that has come to stay with us since we purchased the house!
Well that is all for now...I am sure I will be back with some more news later, I have a dishwasher to unload and dinner to serve <3
