Blessed

Well, after just a year and half of living in Atlanta it was time for me (us) to move back to Michigan. Tims work decided they needed him at the sight in the Detroit area, and since it was a promotion of sorts we decided it would be the best option for his career. So in just two months we packed up and took the long drive back to Michigan. It was hard to leave to say the least. I miss the gorgeous constantly blue sky's, the amount of activities there were to do, the new friends I made, the church we found, and the little girl I cared for. I was there just long enough to get attached.

Despite having to leave a place I fell absolutely in love with, all I've been able to think about lately is how blessed I am. Tim and I are renting a town home which is much bigger than the last apartment we had. It feels more like a home, especially since we painted it (with the help of my BFF). The other blessing about moving back to Mi, I'm living much nearer to my closest friends and I get to watch my little nephew grow up!


Just look at that face! How could you not want to be around him more?? That was one of the toughest things about living in Atlanta, not being able to see him very much.

In the fall I will be going back to school. When we first learned we'd be moving I contacted the OT director at the school I was attending. I was going to enter the OT program in 2011, but since I moved I obviously couldn't do that. When I talked to the director I asked if I could start right up in the program again. She said that I couldn't since I completely dropped the program, and that I would have to get back on the waiting list. However another bump in the road would be the fact that they added a second Anatomy & Physiology class that I would need to complete before getting onto the waiting list; which would mean another 3 years before being able to begin the program.
However, she said she would go ahead and put me on the list now as long as I promise to take the A&P class by this fall! That means I begin the OT program NEXT fall as opposed to 3 years from now. Woot Woot!

To top everything off my marriage is better than ever! I'm so blessed (I know I keep using that word) to have such a great husband. I'm so grateful to God for giving me the life and marriage I always dreamed about growing up. Of course my list could go on and on but I'll leave it there.

Thanks for reading!
