Patience

Today is different.

I sat in the school parking lot, waiting for my daughter to get out of her clarinet lessons, and I was also watching my son's football practice. I could hear his coach's voice calling out the roll call. How lucky my son is to have such a great role model as his coach. My daughter walked out of the school giggling with her best friend.

I don't want to take these things from them, and that's just what I'd be doing if we had to move. I have discovered that I am an emotional basketcase. I spent the better part of the last four years working my butt off to get a college education, and I now I feel like I'm back where I started. I am constantly reminding myself how lucky I am and I need to just be patient. Even if we do have to move, I know it would be for the best. Being able to provide for my family and putting smiles on their faces continues to be my ultimate goal.
