On the Brink of what? I'm not quite sure yet...

Wednesday, October 21, 2009

Welcome to my blog! While I consider myself technologically savvy, this is my first attempt at a blog, so bear with me. Over time, I’m sure this blog will evolve into something I can’t even imagine at the moment, but at this point, I just hope to share the trials and tribulations of being a stay-at-home mom.

I was a full-time teacher for 8 years, teaching both special education and general education 7th grade English. I loved my job and dedicated myself to my students. After the birth of my second child, though, I felt like I was missing something. After a colleague’s heartbreaking loss, I took a hard look at my life and priorities and decided I didn’t want to miss out on raising my children. It hasn’t been an easy decision, and I still struggle with the future of my professional life. But, in the end, I love being home with my kids and am grateful for my husband’s unwavering support.
