It's already MAY???

I can't believe that it is already May 1st... What the heck? Where does time go?

I have been working for Premier Mentoring (our company sells real estate programs, I DON'T sell though, just do Orientations!) since Feb 24th and am just now starting to get used to working again.. LOL! I think I got a little spoiled when we lived in Ticaboo. I started working a little after a month after Jonathon bought Precision Tile. The main reason for me working is so that we can buy a house while the market is SO DANG CHEAP!! And so that Jonathon could get the business up and going! It would've been kind of hard on him to have to do the business stuff and work to... So he actually stays home with Alexis!! He does the majority of the business stuff from the phone or computer, so he can stay with her wich is the ONLY WAY I can work and be okay with it. There is just NO WAY I could send her off to a day care or something. So the deal is that when Jonathon starts getting busy to where he can't give her his FULL ATTENTION.. than I quit! For the first month of me working.. I cried almost every morning when I had to roll out of my comfy bed and leave my beautiful baby girl :( But I keep going because I really really want a house.. And I get Health Ins. in a month! (so we can start trying for another little angel from heaven!) So those are the reason's I get up every morning! The girls that I work with are really awesome and I'm so glad that they make me laugh all day! One of the girls I work with is a single mom, and her little boy does go to day care. Anytime I start complaining about not being home with Alexis she reminds me that other people have it way worse.. And that my little girl is home with her Daddy and not some stranger..

Jonathon is starting to get very busy, and we are taking every day at a time.. He knows that when he can't give Alexis his full attention that I will no longer work. So we want to get into a house soon!

I know that I could probably complain a lot about me working, but I am so blessed with what we have! I don't have to work like some people do, I work because I want to, and that makes it better.. I know that if I can stick it out that we will be able to accomplish the things that we want to! So it is a sacrafice, but if I get a house and a baby out of it.. IT WILL ALL BE WORTH IT!

It is so hard as a mom to not feel so guilty that I'm not at home with my little girl, and it still just kills me some days when she asks me over and over not to go :( It just breaks my heart.. But I know that if me working helps Jonathon focus on the business that is starting to really take off! Then I'll get to stay home with all my children forever!! I've never had to be away from Alexis, I've been so blessed that at such a young age Jonathon has always been able to provide for us, in every situation! But it is my turn to do something for him :) It is a good thing I have so much faith in him.. and I know that the business is going to be successful.. or I probably wouldn't be able to make it through the day... He always says if we want the life we know we want.. that right now we have to make sacrafices. I'm just so glad that he is home with Alexis!

You can tell that she is a lot more attached to her daddy now! She loves being able to hang out with him, and he has loved it so much! Sometimes I wonder how men go their whole lives as the bread winner.. and work so hard to provide for their families. It is so crazy to me. Just is to much pressure for me... I COULD NOT do it.

I don't think I have ever heard my dad complain about having to work, he is such a hard worker.. it is almost unbelievable. We always had everything we needed and more.. Jonathon says we were all very spoiled! My mom was home with us till we were in high school and then just worked part time for a little bit. My dad has always done hard labor jobs and I just want him to know how grateful I am for everything he did for our family.. and the hard worker he still is today. I'm so blessed that I married someone that knows exactly what he wants in life.. and knows that he will not settle. A lot of people can't believe that he is a business owner at such a young age... But he wouldn't want it any other way. I love you babe so much!!

Okay so I didn't mean to write a novel, but I thought that I'd just let everyone know what I'd been up to. I'm so excited to start looking for a house soon. And I'm excited that Jonathon is getting busier because that means that the business is doing good! With the economy and so many people without jobs.. I just cannot complain, therefore I'm going to say that Life is Great! I have a good job, I make pretty good money to just sit around and play on the computer.. and I work with great people! I know that I am contributing to us getting a house :) YAY! and yeah I think that is all.

Sorry so long :)
