Big Decision

Zac and I have been discussing the topic of me working for as long as I can remember. We go back and forth with pros and cons and it feels like we just go round and round. But alas a decision had to be made and I can't say it was that hard because I feel like I've known it was the right decision all along.

I turned in my resignation/leave of absence to my principal yesterday.

I won't be returning to work next year! I am so happy and really feel like this is going to be something that I look back on treasure the time I was able to be at home with my little girl.

The day care situation has actually been really good but still I feel like I am missing out on so much during the week and our evenings and weekends are spent cooking and cleaning and grocery shopping instead of spending quality time together.

So many people have given me their opinions on the staying home vs. working debate and I really do see how both sides can be very rewarding. I truly believe everyone has to make the decision that's right for them.

I am so thankful I have a wonderful husband to support and care for me and now I just have to work on some of my spending habits! I'll let ya know how that goes...
