The life that has been keeping me from blogging!

Alright, alright, so i know i am slacking on my blogging, but in my defense it has been a pretty busy time for me! Since my decision to stop going to school I have been working, working, working! As some of you know, i am a live in nanny in pecan. i work for a great mom who happens to travel 2-3 weeks out of the month, so my job is to take care of her daughter! I absolutely love this job, despite the fact that we have to leave the house at 5:30 am in order to get her to school by 6!

I also work at a community center funded by my church called rancho brazos! Much like the first job i mentioned, i love it! I work there two nights a weeks for a couple hours and i spend my time there doing crafts with kids and helping them with whatever homework they may have. This job is so rewarding, not because im getting paid the big bucks(ha!), but because these kids feed my soul. They help me remember what's important in life, which is something that we all struggle with in life from time to time!

I recently started working in my church nursery too! This job is a little more difficult because the kids are  younger than im used to! Dont get me wrong, i love working with all kids! Its just harder taking care of 10 babies under three, then it is taking care of older kids like i do a rancho brazos! I do love working in the nursery that i grew up in though! Its fun to know that i am surrounded by people who have watched me grow up from the time i was in diapers!

For the past year i have been trying to decide what exactly i want to do with my life. and after many months of long prayer and endless thought i have decided that next fall, i will be moving to Austin to go to cosmetology school so that i can have my childhood dream job... a hairstylist! Im so excited about this decision because it is something i have always wanted to do! I am still deciding which school in Austin i will be attending because there a few really good ones! Ill keep you all posted if i make anymore decisions!
