Hey everyone! It’s been a while since I’ve posted an update. I just want to say I have been very busy planning my wedding as I can’t believe it’s already 9 months away. I still have so much to do, but I’m very excited about my future with my sweetheart, Danny! 🥰

So I have some very sad and unexpected news. I sadly got laid off from my teaching job. But the good news is that it’s only temporary. But it’s been very hard because I miss my kids and especially little Brody. I think he is fine when I’m not there. But I really miss seeing his smiling face every morning and his cuddles with me. 🥹 I’m still happy that I get to visit him as often as I can.

I am very happy that I have a very great relationship with my boss. I’m like the daughter she never had and I was one of best teachers. But with my class, I was having a hard time handling them. So she thinks it was best for me to take some time off, take some classes and collect some unemployment.

I did talk to her last week and asked where we stood with my job. She told me that it had been 2 weeks since the lay off and that I should check back in a month. So good news is that I will be back, but it’s the waiting I hate.

Thats all for now, I hope you guys have a good weekend!

Hey y’all, I just wanted to share and update you guys on a couple of things! So I’ll be talking about my job mostly in this journal. Just a lot of wonderful things and I just want to share with you all!

So, if you guys remember, when I first started my job, I absolutely hated it. I would dread it every morning because well you guys know, I have been with the 2 year olds and I was just getting tired of it. But as I become more involved in this class, I found myself slowly starting to become attached and loving on these kids. Most of them are now 3 years old and will be moving up to the preschool class next month.

Here’s whats so exciting though, I get to become a preschool teacher and I get the privilege of having these kids that were in my toddler class in my preschool class! I am so excited for this opportunity because this has been something I’ve wanted for the longest time!

I have grown to really fall in love with my job and what I do. My heart is always full of love when I’m with these specific kids.

There is one kid in my class and it’s funny how God does have a sense of humor. This one kid has been on my nerves the moment I started working in that class. All of a sudden, I’ve gotten to know this kid and he is the sweetest and the most adorable little boy ever! Lol his name is Brody. But this kid has my whole heart and I can’t imagine my class without him.

He can be quite a challenge, and he gets into mischief a lot. I have a hard time being strict with him because he always tries to be cute, like cuddle with me, or just look at me with his beautiful big dark brown eyes of his that make my heart melt. 🥰

This kid loves me and he makes it obvious in his actions. He loves to sit on my lap and cuddle with me while he sucks his thumb and with his blanky. He loves to hold my hand when he lays down on his mat. Lets just say that he has me wrapped around his little finger. 🥹❤️

Never have I ever met a kid who has loved me and become very attached to me. Its like a mother and son relationship and I love it. It gives me a good idea how motherhood is going to be like.

Lets just say that because of Brody, I’ve grown to love my job like never before. 🥰

Hey guys, so this is my first journal for 2023! Wow! So, you guys are probably wondering why I have suddenly disappeared and why I haven't been on very much in the last almost 2 months!

Well, I started my new job on February 10th and ever since then, I have been a very nervous and busy wreck! I missed working with kids! But 2 year olds, not so much.

That is where my boss has put me for the time being, I'm praying that I am there temporarily as I feel better working with the older preschool aged children.

My weeks are busy from morning till night and I don't have enough time to recover in the evenings because then I have to start all over again the next morning! LOL

But this week was my Spring Break and boy did I need a break! I am more than ready to go back and start fresh on Monday after this well deserved break.

I just wanted to post a little life update and I hope y'all have a great 2023!

Hey guys, its been a really long time since I have done a journal, but I wanted to update you guys on what has been going on in my life.

Back in July, I went and tried online dating for the fourth or fifth time. I was still doing M12M with Jackie and if you don't know what that is, its a ministry for young Christian women to help them find their future husband. Jackie Dorman is the head of it and her husband does a ministry for Christian men called 1822. I joined the M12M community back in June 2021.

Now if you don't know what M12M stands for, it stands for "Married in 12 months or less".

Its based on a book Jackie Dorman wrote called "Married in 12 months or less".

Anyway, I went back to online dating and I met this guy on there who happened to live in my town. His name is Danny.

We met in person probably after two days of talking and we really hit it off. We met each other's families and then we became a couple on Sept 4. So I am very excited for what the future holds for us!

He's a very sweet Christian man, and I just love this family. I pray that he is the one for me. I hope you guys pray for our relationship and that we make the time for each other. Its been hard because he works nights and I can't seem to get things done because he wants to be with me. So trying to make him a priority has been challenging. It seems to be getting better.

Anyways, I hope you all have a great rest of your week and weekend!

Hey guys, um its been a while since I have done a journal. I did one several months ago but deleted because no one bothered to comment or whatever and I will not put up with people like that, so I am going to try this again.

I want to thank those who did wish me a Happy Birthday! These last several months have been hard for me and then the week of my birthday my family and I get sick with Covid. We are all still trying to get over the sickness. I am eager to recover so I can get back to doing other things.

I hope my friend Stardust-Phantom has a wonderful birthday tomorrow!

I have some news, but I talked about it so much in the last journal and because I deleted it, I won't share unless people are actually interested. I hope you guys continue to stay healthy and I will update you guys on how I am feeling when I finally get over my sickness.
