The New Chapter

No, I didnt have twins...but I do have them. Noah and I are officially at-home nannies to Miss Emily And Mr. William, who are the 13 week old twins of my dear friend Beth. My last official day at FCCJ was yesterday and I am now Supernanny. Noah and I had a trial run last week while I was on Spring Break and I was so pleasantly surprised how well we all did, babies slept, Noah slept, I got to spend oodles of time with him, and I am peaceful and confident. I am also going to be a teensie bit broke, but my husband is so happy I am happier and God is large and in charge.

Noah is amazing, he is talking and repeating things, he is saying Yes and No by nodding and Puts his hands up in the air for "I dont know" which melts my heart every time. He has been gentle with the babies and wants to hug and kiss them A LOT, he has snuggled up to the boppy when they are on there and he even rubbed bellies with William (it's Noah's weird greeting...thanks Daddy).

I dont know when it will hit me that i dont have to dress up anymore. That i dont have deadlines, meetings (except OA of course), or job stress. I am going to miss the students the most. I cried when I said goodbye to them. They have been my inspiration and my motivation for so many years. Now I am motivated by my need to 'mother' as a verb. I am in a nurturing mode and I am looking forward to focusing on my well being and that of my family. We can do without 'things' if it means we can have deeper and more meaningful relationships. This is a new season and I could not be more grateful!
