I finally did it! I called my boss last night and gave him my notice. For those who don't know me, I've been working for the same fellow for almost 11years. After my first child was born, I have gradually lowered the amount of hours I work. I am now down to working just Saturdays.
It has been my desire for some time to be a full time stay-at-home mom, but because of financial stuff, we just didn't feel ready.
Well, now is the time! We've made some adjustments to our financial output and we feel that we should be able to do it. It might be tough, but we know that God will provide in our need. This has been a hard decision for me. I have been struggling with faith that God will keep us okay. "Lord, I believe; Help thou mine unbelief." Mark 9:24
But my wonderful hubby told me on Sunday to go ahead and give my notice...so after much procrastinating it is done. All I have to do now is tell my manager when I go in on Saturday.
I have been feeling so unhappy at work that I knew this was the right thing. I haven't felt like I've been able to do my calling as a wife and mother to the best of my abilities. Even that one day, threw my spirit off. God has convicted me of many changes needed in my life, and this is just one. I think by taking this step, I will be able to give my full attention to my hubby and children. I believe too that the homeschooling will go much smoother if I am not split in my duties. I feel a great weight lifted from my back.
So, one month to go...April 8th is the last day! |
