So I just realized that i've been blogging for a year now. I started my blog in July of 2008. This year has flown by so fast. I thought I would reminise on the past year, and some of the things that have happened.
Then... I started off this blog hoping that I had landed a full time job with Central Community Schools. I did get the paraprofessional job I was hoping for working with a self contained class. I then switched from working with self-contained to working with pre-k which I absolutely loved!!
Now... I am still a para with Central Schools, but this school year I will be at Bellingrath Hills instead of Tanglewood. I will be floating around to different classrooms/grades, working 1 on 1 with children that are at risk of being held back.
Then... I was so excited because Chris and I were going to start trying to get pregnant. We didn't get pregnant right away, but finally we did!!!
Now... I will be welcoming my precious baby boy into the world in about 2 weeks.
Then... Chris and I were living in a duplex in Watson. We had gotten ourselves into some debt that we needed to get out of so we moved to my parents house to save money, get out of debt, and get a house.
Now... We are still living at my parents house, but we are almost out of debt. Owning our own home is not just a dream anymore, we can see it in the near future!!!
We have definitley had some ups and downs during my past year of blogging, but we have been so BLESSED. Actually writing this blog has just shown me how many of my prayers God answered! Sometimes I might get down because at that point in my life things may not look the way I want them too, but I have never needed anything and God not be there to provide for that need.
Thank you Jesus for being so good to me, even when I haven't always been serving you the way I should.

I don't know if it's my hormones or the fact that the older I get the more I cry, but this made me cry for sure!
I'm sorry for making you cry. I started crying when I finished writing it. I thought I was going to write a funny blog. As I was typing I realized how much God had blessed me with, that I never even took the time to Thank him for. It's so easy to go by with the day to day and never think that he planned it all that way.
Its such a blessing to see my baby sister living for Jesus and then watching him bless her beyond measure b/c of it...
I'm so proud of you Danielle and the amazing woman that you've become.
