Well I finally graduated with my bachelor's degree this past weekend. I kind of feel like I am in limbo right now because I don't have anything that I'm really working towards now. I love being a stay at home mother but need something more to work on. So I think that I will take some classes at the local community college in things that I have been interested in but never pursued because they were impractical in a college degree. I would love to learn how to seamstress or just learn how to sew better in general. I would love to take cooking classes and maybe some art classes. I love learning and I think that this would help in educating Gen in the future. I think that I would also like to volunteer somewhere. I have been thinking a lot about our time spent at Primary Children's and would love to give back to the wonderful volunteers that made our stay special. I think I would also like to start to make things and sell them on etsy. There are tons of ideas running through my head right now. I just want to do so many things.


Okay so I probably spent way too much time talking about my graduation and post graduation plans. I probably should devote a whole other post to Gen's blessing but I will write a little here now and write more later. Yesterday we were able to bless our baby and give her a name to be put on the records of our church. It was extra special because yesterday was also mother's day. It felt really surreal that from now on I will be celebrated as a mom each year. People kept wishing me a Happy Mother's Day and I was given gifts also. It felt so weird because generally I don't like being the center of attention. It was fun though. I loved Eric's gift I think the most because I have been mentioning it for the past couple of years that I wanted a new bathing suit. Now I know that most of you are probably thinking "then why didn't you just go out and buy one?" well I'm kind of picky when it comes to clothes. Money really does make a difference if you want said article of clothing to last for years to come. My last swimming suit cost over a hundred dollars and I just didn't feel right spending a lot of money on something so trivial. This swimming suit didn't cost as much as my last swimming suit but I think that it will last me for quite a while. I absolutely love it! We just need to find Gen a swimming suit now. Did you know that there are like zero stores that sell size 3 month swimming suits. I have only found Carter's to have them but they are so expensive! I don't really want to spend that much money on something she will only be able to wear for a few months. I might be able to have her pull off a six month swimming suit but I don't know. Hopefully the swimming diaper will take up some room...Sorry I think I just ran off on a tangent. Sorry if you had to endure this whole post.
:) Congrats!
ReplyDeleteI think the sewing class would be a great idea...many times over...
ReplyDeleteThe sewing machine needs a bit of a work out, don't you think?
