Falling Off the Cliff

Have you ever had one of those dreams where you know you are going to go over the side of the cliff and there is nothing you can do about it? At this point I am catapulting over the side of a cliff and I can do nothing to stop it. This sounds scary and kind of depressing but I have found that this is when God grows can grow me the most. It is a time when I can't depend on me so I have to depend on Him. I think this is a good thing.

I have been teaching now for 7 school days. It is amazing to me that I am now accomplishing what I went to school for for so long. I am not sure if I am doing everything I am supposed to be doing, but I am doing all I can:).

I am also about three weeks out from my due date! Can I just say this is the scariest most exciting thing I have ever waited for. Sometimes I cry because I am so scared I can't breath and sometimes I just cry and no one really knows why:). That I guess is the joy of pregnancy.

Between these two things, I don't think I can handle much else. I am so overwhelmed with life right now. But at the same time I am so excited about all that is going on. I keep wanting to pause things so that I can stop for a minute and just look around and appreciate all the things that are going on. But I seemed to have misplaced the remote...along with everything else:)!

I think you are holding it all together remarkably well.
And I cannot wait to snuggle little Ava Claire - it won't be long now!

Oh Andrea, I can just imagine how crazy busy your life is right now! Oh wait. No. I don't have to imagine it because I, too, am living it! Well, minus the baby part. But I am watching a 6-month old every afternoon after I get home from teaching kindergarten!

Here's my little saying that I like to share. In a few short weeks you'll really understand it. :)..."Teaching kindergarten in SEPTEMBER is like giving birth. If you remembered how bad it was, you'd never do it again!!!"

Love you! :)
