After much thought, I decided last week to quit one of my jobs. I'll be done working with Sawyer in July. The reason is that the other family I work with (the one that babysits Bailey) won't be using Heather and me to help with their homeschooling so Debbie (the mom) won't have as much time to watch Bailey. Of course I could have found other ways around the childcare issue, I felt like this is what I had really been praying for. It's my next step. I'd been praying for the "next step" for 4 months now and here it is. So I'll be staying home more with Bailey and working 20 hours or less a week. It's perfect timing because it's just the right amount of time to train my replacement, Mike will be home shortly after I quit so we'll have more time to be together, and Bailey will stop taking her morning nap soon and we'll have all of our mornings together. It's going to be fantastic!
Those were the big changes I was talking about in the last post. But after talking to Mike yesterday, seems like maybe there are some other changes in our future as well. Since it's the military it's ALL subject to change but looks like he's already slotted for an October 2011 deployment to Afghanistan. He's looking for ways out of it, which could include moving for a 2 year assignment as a drill sgt. We want to be where God wants us. I just hope God doesn't want us in the armpit of the south (Ft. Benning - Columbus, GA), lol. We'll see in His time, I suppose.
