Well I'm officially a stay at home mom. Yesterday I wrapped up 8 yrs of design work at Pulse Creative Partners. It was bittersweet for sure. It'll be nice to be able to stay home with my kids, but on the other hand, it was pretty nice to collect a paycheck from a job I loved.
Most graphic designers will agree that this is not a job that we have to make ourselves do, It's something we truly enjoy. So I will certainly miss the work, but I hope to freelance and keep up my skills that way.
On the stay at home front, I've enrolled Belle and me into MOPS at our church. I hope that we can both meet friends and find people to spend our new found free time with. Belle will start a 6 week preschool class in November and I hope to maybe try out the library story time. I'm sure Belle will love going to all the activities and not being cooped up in my office. =)

Your kids will be so glad they'll be able to say that mommy stayed home to take care of them!! Nobody (except Mimi) can love & care for them like mommy. You made God smile today :O)
