Day 5: Staying Home

Today I am thankful that I get to spend my days at home being a mom. Having been on the other side, a rough year and a half spent teaching full time and taking care of a constantly-sick- thanks-to-daycare baby, I know how lucky I am to be home with my children. I love being the one to teach and encourage them in a hundred different ways each day and to witness how much they're learning and growing. I love knowing that my most important job, being a mom, can be my number one focus. Thankfully, I have a great husband who feels the same way and willingly carries the responsibility of providing for our family. I am a lucky girl.
