30 things #7

What is my dream job?

This is a tough question!  Sometimes I believe I am doing my dream job right now - being a mom.  But then I go into my paying job and miss the interaction and think about the work I do and realize that I am pretty close to my dream job now.  Let's see if I can sum this up

I think my dream job would be to work 7 hours a day 9-3, Monday - Friday.  This would be my "paying" job and my job would include moments for laughter, moments to help people, moments of pressure, moments where I needed to make descisions and moments where I just got to hang out.  I also want part of my job to have an education compontent.  This piece would have moments where I would teach people, but a requirement of my position would entail professional developement.  My "unpaid" job would be the rest of the time so from 3pm - 9am 365 days of the year, with on call duties from 9-3 Monday through Friday. This job would include being a mom!  Cooking, cleaning, loving, playing, teaching, reacting, problem solving, budgetting, planning, shopping, recreational activities, etc!!!!

So almost there....

How is it June 14th already!

So today is the birthday of a dear friends little boy.  He is a handsome little boy and adorable :)  I will never forget the day we got the call from his dad to say he'd arrived.  His birth was egarly anticipated.  I was pregnant with J at the same time.  As I sit here remembering my eyes fill with tears because he was the first "little" boy I held after holding Brayden.  Lucky for me I am able to cry infront of these friends because cry I did.  So grateful to have good friends.

This weekend is crazy! 

Tonight we have a family photo shoot, and we are getting some pics of just James and I.  I even planned our outfits out so we are all coordinating.  Looking forward to this for many reasons.  I hate my picture taken but it's our 6 year anniversary and I would love to have a picture of us together.  I also think I need to have a picture of me, I have lost some weight...but I don't see it.  When I look at myself I still see the size 14/16 girl that I've always been. 

Tomorrow Janessa has a program in the morning called Shake Rattle and Roll!  I think James will take her adn then in the afternoon we get to go to a birthday party.  So excited.  Amanda plans great parties...maybe she should start a new buisness....anyways I am only slightly disappointed because she makes amazing cakes and I know I will want some.  Oh well maybe next year??? 

Sunday we celebrate Father's day, Abigail turning 9 months and our anniversary!  The plan is Tinkertown and then James and I are sending the girls home with my parents and we are going to have a "date" but we'll see.

Monday is the start of swimming lessons and Amanda's birthday!  Wow what's it going to be like when the girls are in school and we are doing all the year end school things.........

I enjoy blogging but I often forget to post!  Feel free to message me, text me send me a reminder.  I have lots to say, I guess it depends on if you want to hear it or not :)
