I know I have shared a little here and there about how we decided to have a baby and how we both knew it was right timing to start a family even though we didn't know how financially we'd get by without me working full time, but we had Faith and knew this was the Lord's plan and he'd find a way!! Well last week we sure felt blessed by our Heavenly Father!!! Even now it brings tears to my eyes!! Don't worry I'm holding it in!! Marcus has been looking for jobs and applying left and right, we have been praying like crazy. Marcus had the opportunity to go away for the summer and work, but I just didn't want him gone and I didn't have a good feeling about it. Then as no job offers where coming I started to question did I make a good choice by telling Marcus not to go?? I was getting a little worried as last week was the last week of school and nothing seemed to be coming.
Then all of a sudden..... JOBS!!! and yes that's an S on JOB!! Marcus got not one but 2 job offers one he really wanted at a bike shop!!! of course his dream job, working on bikes and selling top of the line bikes! And job #2 a research job, something he may not love doing but something completely great for his resume for medical school!! Wow wee, how do you pick?? Well he talked to both of them and guess what?? he can do part time at both!!!!! We are totally excited and feel so blessed!! I know Heavenly Father is watching over us every day! The more I think about it the More I just know our little JaMarcus was meant to come to our family at this time!! I just can't wait for him to come!! I'm going to be really sad if he doesn't come in May!! I can't wait til JUNE, no over-due babies, I'll probably cry every night he's over due! :)
So Today Marcus starts both jobs and we'll just have to wait and see what exactly his schedule will be and how it'll all turn out!
I on the other hand am totally ready to be done!! I'm training the new girl and she is catching on, so now just feel I'm wasting my time standing around, I would rather be super busy then just standing around all day... Makes the day go so slow!! So not only do I just want to have my baby to have him, I want to have him so I can stop working!! I have a great job and the pay is super nice, but I'm just so ready for the next step in life!!!
My cousin had her baby last night so I think if she can have him a week early so can I!!! haha or two!!
As I go for walks he feels lower and I feel a lot of tightening on my belly! So I guess I just need to go run a 5K or something!! haha I've been on the Elliptical every day now, and maybe it's not helping him come but it sure makes me feel better!! I still have the attitude that even though everyone says no working out for 6 weeks or so after a baby, I think I'll be fine after a week or so and get back to working out and going for walks, mainly because it's a drug to me, I just feel so much better when I work out! we'll see!!
Such a beautiful post... We wish you well your exciting young lives. We admire your recognition of Our Lord's hand in our loves. We will await the good news of your delivery. It seems like only yesterday, while on a canoe trip with you and your family, that you led me up on a high ledge overhanging the river and challenged me to jump. I watched as you did a flip off the rock into the river about thirty feet below. I was scared to jump but the people behind me reminded me that a five year old girl just showed the way! You will have many exciting adventures with your children, family and friends... Enjoy the ride! Love Ya!
