It's been awhile.

I haven't posted in quite awhile. This blogging thing is harder than people think. Even if it is just writing a simple paragraph. I think sometimes i over analyze things and that makes it a little harder for me. Anyway, our lives lately went from rocky to wonderful. It's amazing what happens when you just start trying. Well let me rephrase...start trying in all the ways you haven't before. And more than anything stick with it. No matter how much work it is STICK WITH IT. The payoff is more than worth it. You think all along that you have been doing things right. But when it gets right down to it there is always one thing overlooked. It isn't always someone else's fault. Even if they are at fault it can't just be them to blame. Be willing to admit you are at fault too. Even taking responsibility for your own actions helps. I feel like things are just starting to really make sense for me in my life.

About a month ago i started working too. I am a caregiver for A Caring Hand. I stay overnight with someone who needs a little extra help due to their old age. I absolutely LOVE it. It brings in the extra money we need and relieves some stress on both of us. Even better i get to stay over two nights a week and then spend 1 day a week. It fits great with our schedules!We'll only need a baby sitter for 2 or 3 hrs after each night so that i can catch up on sleep and then the entire day of my day shift. It really is helping me feel like i contribute to the family as well. It also give me the break i need and time away from home. It was such a blessing to have gotten the call and got the job!

I'm not sure if i had mentioned it before but Bry got promoted! He is not the shop supervisor at Jiffy Lube in Heber. About a week ago he also got another raise! He oversees the brakes as well. He is doing so great and we are all so proud of him! He is finally where he needs to be and being appreciated like he deserves. He also has the best boss anyone could ask for. I am so happy for him. It's been a long time coming.

Luna turned 18 months yesterday too! Where has the time gone? I remember my tiny little newborn girl like it was yesterday. Today i thought about that a lot actually. She has gotten so big and is really growing up. She is so smart too. I am so proud to be able to call her mine. I don't think you realize just how lucky you are to be a mom. Mainly because it can be so much work and overwhelming at times, that we don't take time to fully appreciate just how beautiful it is. Being a mom is one of the most important things to me in my life. Which is so funny because i have always disliked kids and never wanted any of my own! But i sure love my little Luna and can't imagine what life would be like without her.

Life has been pretty amazing lately! Can't wait to see what the next few months hold for us! I'll be sure to try and keep you updated!
