Working Mom

Well, the day has finally come...I have a job. I am going to be working as a personal trainer on post in the mornings/early afternoons. I'm very excited, since training is more of a hobby than a job for me, but I'm also a little sad. I've been home with little Kira since she was born, and have been lucky enough to be around for a lot of "firsts". It will be hard for me to leave her for half of the day. They say it takes 14 days for you to adjust to a new habit - so I'm praying that the first two weeks will go by smoothly and quickly! My sister in-law will be watching her too, which is a huge relief. I know that she will be getting all the love and attention that she needs...and learning spanish too! :) I am very fortunate - the fact that I don't HAVE to work is a comforting thought. If I hate it, I can go back to being a full time mom. And I'm not working a full-time 9-5 job either. I'll be starting my work day hours before she even wakes up, and I'll be home in time to lay her down for a nap, get some things done around the house, and then spend the whole afternoon with her - so really I'm only missing about 3 hours of her that I would see in a normal day. Training is a fabulous job! I get to do what I love, I am able to make my own schedule, and I don't have to put in a ton of hours to make some extra money. So I am thankful for that. I'm trying to focus on the positive and pray that I will enjoy every minute of work, and enjoy all my time I get at home with family. :) Wish me luck! Also, I'll be opening my own online training business very soon so stay tuned for that!! :)
