Happy in my own skin…..

Sharing is caring!

I am comfortable with who I am and what I do right now in my life.

Most people think I should be doing whatever they have in mind but what I’m doing is taking care of my family and I’m Happy with that. I’ve had a few emotional moments b/c there have been a few setbacks but overall I’m Happy. I enjoy waking up to my 3 year old Madison every morning (except for the whole potty thing…hehehe) seeing her grow into a beautiful girl. I can proudly say that I taught her ABC’s, how to count to 20, her colors, her name, how old she, her b-day, etc. All of these great things were done by me and she’s known all of these things since age 2 or younger. Being a S.A.H.M I am glad I was able to see all of this first hand and I was able to see her grow up into the beautiful girl she is now. I am expecting another Girl at the end of October 2011 and I plan on doing the same thing with her as well and I’m Happy with that decision.

When I was working I had pretty good jobs… Legal Assistant at a Law Firm and I even went back to school and I got hired on my externship and started working as a Administrative Assistant for the Billing Dept at a Podiatry Office. BUT I gave up up those jobs to focus on my family and I have no regrets. We had some financial setbacks but God has provided and I’m grateful.

I believe there are some women who wish they could stay home with their children but can’t and there are some women who want to be out there working and guess what there is nothing wrong with either one.

It would really aggravate me when people would ask well what are you doing these days and I say “I”m a S.A.H.M”(stay at home mom) people sometimes give good responses and some have something negative to say but guess what it doesn’t bother me either way because I’m Happy being me and where I am in life.

Ladies and Gentlemen, there comes a time in life where we need to just be Happy with where we are, whether its working at a fast food joint, staying home with the family, going to school, not in school, etc. for so long people have always tried to put us in a certain category and they always try to decide what we should be doing and sometimes we do it just to please everyone else. I stopped that a long time ago…. Let’s be Happy with where we are and where God is going to take us. If you’re not in a good place right now and want God to change your situation just pray and ask for guidance and instruction on what he wants you to do. This life isn’t easy and sometimes we get upset because we don’t know what God wants us to do or what we even want to do but all I’m saying is until you find out what that something is…. Live Life Happy and just enjoy it to the fullest!

Everything doesn’t go the way I want it to all the time… Sometimes I even cry, get upset, complain etc. I’m human and those things happen but I brush it off and keep moving and I try my best to please God in whatever I’m doing.

Let’s live a life pleasing to God. Let’s be Happy. Let’s live according to his word. and let’s not let the world dictate what we should do but do what you do and be Happy doing it:-)

Happiness
You cannot buy your happiness,
‘Cause happiness is free.
Don’t you know, or can’t you guess,
It’s there for you and me.
And what you do with what you’ve got,
Can change the way you feel.
Just do your best and smile a lot,
You’ll keep an even keel. 

Cause happiness is made for YOU,
Just take a bite and see
That happiness is what you do
With something that is free.
