Perseverance

Since the beginning of summer, things have been a whirlwind. In the past two months, I've taken a journey of faith. This journey began with the decision to begin grad school this summer. I've decided to attain my masters degree in Teacher Leadership. With two 6 week courses on top of teaching summer school, taking care of my lil guy, cleaning house, getting a tan, and oh; don't let me forget that I'm also loving my Scentsy business!

Needless to say, being a mom is hard work. Being a wife is hard work. Being a student is hard work. There are days when I want to cry, laugh, sleep, run, and just be quiet. In my heart, I know that God has a bigger plan for me and my family.

Alex has been at Beef O Brady's for a year now and it's marked the one year anniversary that he was laid off from DeVry University. This was a blessing and also a turn of events. We were blessed with the opportunity for Alex to be able to stay at home with Everett for the first year of life. We have also been blessed with Nana Betty who has been able to help watch Everett in the afternoon when Alex goes to work and I'm finished my day at school.

God is bigger than all of this that we've been through and are still going through. I know in my heart that he is good all of the time. I know in my head that this will not last forever. And I know in my feet, our journey is not at a stand still.

Just recently, we've embarked on a new journey called Genesis Pure. It sounds insane that we've up and started something else new BUT! We want more. We want more time together, more time for our home, and more time for relaxation and mental health. This is not just another direct sales company. This is a company that is growing rapidly and also serves so many health benefits along with getting a paycheck every week. We've only been with Genesis Pure for almost two weeks and we're excited to see the growth of the company as well as our business.
