Well, I finally decided to start posting on here again.  As we end the "official" school year and begin the summer before our FIRST year of homeschooling, I want to track some of our life.  I'm not sure who will check back here and keep up with us...but it's nice to have a place to "store" memories.  In the last months I have take on two jobs for the time being.  At our local hospital and at a big women and babies hospital in another town.  I'm real excited because I get to venture into a new and exciting speciality....

~*~*LABOR AND DELIVERY*~*~ 

Aside from being a Mommy and wife, this is my dream job. This is why I went to nursing school.  I have decided to put off graduate school for awhile.  I have alot on my plate with the commute to the new job and the decision to homeschool the kids.  Tommy is now at home full-time with the kids.  He's such an EXCELLENT father.  I look forward to our partnership in this new segment of our journey.  I'm so thankful that God brought Tommy and I together.  He's good at what I'm weak at and visa versa.  We are doing everything that we can to get through the rest of the school year.  I want to bring them home now!!!  We went to the Coastal Florida Curriculum Fair and bought the curriculum that we will be using next year...I'm so excited I want to start right now.  Bryce is finishing up third grade and Caitlan is finishing kindergarten.  They are doing well, but I see the ways of the world creeping in from everywhere.  I just want to keep the innocent for as lond as possible. I hear my niece and nephew talk who are the same age and it makes me sad that they know the things they already know.  God gave me the job of protecting our children; their hearts, their minds and their souls.  And that is what we are going to do. I apologize in advance to those of you that think that we're not doing the right thing for our children...but that's just it, they're our children.  After much prayer and seeking the Lord's will for our family, we have decided to take the road less traveled (per usual for us).  I also encourage you to come back here often, especially as Fall rolls around and we really get started.  I'll put up pictures and tell you all about our adventures together.
