For about the past three months I have been working from home every other day. I worked for my Brother-in-law that owns a business called my4closures.com. Well, ever since Jared went back to school the job has been very difficult for me and sometimes very stressful because I don't have him here to help me out with Caleb during the busiest times.
I haven't wanted to give the job up because I felt like we needed the money, but I finally decided it wasn't worth it anymore. Today is my last day and in many ways that is a huge relief!
All I know is I just want to be a good mother. Nothing brings me greater joy and I didn't like having something that was taking me away from that. It is definitely a blessing that Jared has a good job to provide for us. I was blessed to have a mother that was always a stay at home mom and I hope that I can give that to my children also. I thought this job would be great because I could work completely from home, but in many ways it still took me away from Caleb. I'm so grateful to be able to move on. Hopefully I can be a better wife and mom now.

Hey Andrea!!! I clicked onto your blog from Aprils. Your page is so cute. I'm just getting into the blogging world as well. You should check out my page. It's mjbingham.blogspot.com. I've only had it for a few days now so it needs some work. How are you guys!! Good I hope. That was so fun when you guys came out to dinner. We definately need to do that again. Good call on the job thing!! Everything will work out because you chose to be the best mom to that cute little boy!! Leave me a comment so I know it's ok to add you as one of my friends. You can add me and Matt if you want. Talk to you later!! Jess
Isn't it crazy how much time and attention kids take? Life just isn't the same once you have kids, it is so much better! You have a cute little face standing in the crib smiling when you groggily go in to get him in the morning, and you have sticky fingers to wipe, and baby einstein movies to watch. It is so fun and rewarding-no job is better than that!
Andrea~
I clicked onto your blog from Lindy's. I am really excited for you. I am sure that was not an easy choice to make. You will be rewarded and so will your son who by the way is Lily's future husband! Do you believe in arranged marriages? :)
Congrats on your quittin' day! I bet that feels good, now just kick up those feet and take a break...or get down on the floor with Caleb. You are a great mother and one I look up to. Keep up the good work Andrea!
