A new day

Today is a new day and it's better than yesterday, which is better than the day before and the day before that. But it's been a hard week all together. After seven fun, hardworking, exciting years at my job, the time has come to move on. I am so sad to leave the people that had become like family to me and so scared about the uncertainty I face. But, I am holding on to my faith and hoping that it will all become clear to me. If not today, then someday. For now, I am continuing to stay home with Hayes, who just turned 12 weeks old yesterday, and we are sending Gray to school, which he adores. Until we know if I will go back to work and when, we are going to try and keep his routine as unchanged as possible. Hopefully we will have a new plan by the first of the year. A small, but growing, part of me is excited about whatever the future holds for me....a new full-time job? a part-time job? a special project? Or perhaps this is God's way of telling me that this is my time to be at home with the kids. I am continuing to pray so that these answers will become clear and I can make the right decision for our family. I am thankful for my friends and family who have been so supportive during such a difficult time in my life. I am blessed to have them, if nothing else.
