I have actually missed blogging!!!! (No, that's not the big news.) I deserted the blog after Landon was born because I wasn't ready to talk about what happened with his birth. I'm still not. I'm just not ready to sit down and see the facts on paper! I didn't know what to write about without talking about him so I just abandoned ship. Well, now I have news. BIG news. I'm a little in shock still.
STARTING IN JANUARY I AM STARTING TO PURSUE MY DEGREE IN NURSING!
Crazy, I know. It's not the end either. Ultimately, I am going to work towards being a lactation consultant. My dream job would be to work with NICU babies and moms and those job postings require not only your certification with the IBCLC, but also an RN license. I'm really excited about this, however, I'm very nervous. Going to school full time with three kids is no easy task. I know that I can do it, and I have a great support system. I've been around the medical field for years. Not to mention, I have a husband with his RN licence that's very new and he's very willing to help!
I am super thrilled that even through the raw, chaotic birth of my last born it brought me to the point of finding what I REALLY want to do for the rest of my life!
I'm super thrilled to see where this takes our family!!!
The pursuit of TRUE happiness...that's what I am longing for, but not the kind that most would think of. We strive to live the simple life. I like old things, my kids play outside instead of on electronics, we eat dinner at home-not resturants (most of the time), and really value our family time!
