Today I brought Presley by my school to show the principal, some of the teachers, and all my kids. It was fun to get to show her off to everyone who had only ever known me since I’d been preggers. All the kids were amazed that my tummy was gone, so I had to explain that once the baby broke out there wasn’t that much left. Tonight I have my orientation meeting for LRCE. I have such mixed emotions about going back to work. I miss the students and today’s visit reminded me why I love them so much. I definitely know I am called to impact the lives of inner city children. But I feel in my heart like right now I am supposed to stay home with Presley. Since the day she was born I just knew I couldn’t leave her… People told me it would wear off and I’d be ready to go back, but I am still not. I am still trusting in God and in His timing because right now we aren’t in a financial position for me to not work.
I’ll update you tomorrow how tonight’s meeting goes 
Keep us in your prayers!!
Going back to work was the hardest thing for me to do. I had to go back when Connor was 6 weeks old and I hated it. DH stayed home with him till he was 4 months and then we had to put him in daycare. At 9 months I had had enough and quit my job and never looked back. Being a stay at home mom is the best thing in the world! Just remember that they are only this small for a short time so enjoy it while you can and follow your heart as far as working or not.
It really is different for each individual. I worked when Dylon & Ashton were both little, actually up until 6 months ago. I have stayed home ever since & actually loved both seasons of my life. You will know when to go back, if that’s what you are supposed to do.
It is a very hard decision. I will tell you this, God will,as you know,provide. We finally came to realize we would never really be in the position money wise, but we decided to trust God and do what he told us. We have not looked back. Chris is a smart man, He will take care of you! Your Family has the favor of God. Do what he says to do!
i agree with eric……FOLLOW GOD. SEEK HIM IN ALL YOU DO. HE WILL PROVIDE. HE ALWAYS COMES THROUGH!
