Faith and prayers=my greatest blessing

It finally happened. I am officially a stay at home mom (I've had this dream forever!). Now all of this happened by accident but I think it was really a blessing from above. I was all prepared and ready ( well as much as I could be and secretly dreading) going back to work Monday November 21st. But my mom who has been our babysitter since I went back to work with Ty got a job. This is very good for her and my little brothers. She needs to be working and it all happened so perfectly. She didn't have to interview and her friend just recommended her. She did some job shadowing and of course they gave her the job. 

I have been thinking about what we would do with the kids ever since she got it. I DID NOT want my kids to go to a daycare. I don't judge anyone that has their kids in one but for me and my family it was just not an option. As Kip and I were discussing what we would do and how we would do it. We decided we would look at our budget one more time. We did and it's going to be tight but we are going to try and do it. It is what I've always wanted and Kip wants it to. 

 As we are working through this big change in our lives income wise, Kip is working hard at getting a new job. While still working hard at his current job and putting in tons of OT. He will hopefully know whether he gets it or not by January 1st. It has been a long process and he has worked very hard through it all. In the meantime I am enjoying my little ones and loving the time I have with them. I am so thankful my husband is such a hard worker and willing to take a big step with faith in trying it.
