How it all started

One morning in May 2009 I woke at 5am and I completed my morning routine that included getting myself and both girls ready for the day. After everyone was decent, lunches were packed and diaper bags were ready we all loaded up in the car and began our morning before the sun had even thought of coming up. Brooke went to day care, Paige went to the babysitter and I headed to the office just as I had done everyday for the past four years. Something was different on that day though and I couldn't quite put my finger on it. As I sat at my desk trying to get my work done I had this nagging feeling in the back of my mind and no matter how hard I tried I just couldn't shake it. Sitting at my desk half way as a joke and half way as being dead serious I picked up my phone and sent a text message to my husband that said: I am quitting my job, selling my car, staying home with the girls and finishing school. Had I lost my mind or was this the most genious idea I had ever had? Well my husband probably thought I forgot my coffee that morning or something but little did he know at the time that text message would ultimatly change the path of our lives. About a week after that text message and after many nights of talking I put in my letter of resignation. About three weeks after that I was offically unemployed. Let the journey begin!!
