January- 6 Months


This is me and my good friend Jessica at her baby shower.

This is Aram with his favorite nursery worker at church, Debbie.

Snowsuit fun!

Goofy new hat... this is one of many!

January was difficult, not only was I a full-time mother, but also a full-time employee outside the home. Over the Christmas vacation, God was working on my heart to quit my job after 8 years and lots of security and great benefits. Peter was not eligible for benefits at his job and we had a 6 month old... what was God doing?? Thankfully, He is bigger and more in control than I (even though it took me a while to figure that one out!) and has everything in His hands. On January 9th, I gave my boss 4 weeks notice and finished up my work. The aftermath of this decision hit hard. I loved my job and was devastated to leave it. I felt so insecure as a mother at this point, that I felt like I was giving up the only thing I did well. Over the entire 4 weeks, God continued to work on me and bring me to my knees daily. Here are a few pics from January to enjoy. More to come in the February post!
