I'm so thrilled!

Throughout my life I've dreamt of what type of Mom I would be and how I would be superMom and get all things right, ALWAYS! I thought my “perfection-ous” ways would get me through everything without a hiccup. At first I thought I'd be a working mom, until I meet Andre then I thought that I would LOVE being a stay at home mom/wife and that it would fulfill me completely. Well, then I started having panic attacks that something would happen to Andre and that I would have lost my career skills that I had to provide a roof over my kids heads, or food to fill their tummies, or insurance to provide their healthcare needs. After nearly a year of praying about this I kinda let it go, well that is until a few months into my photography business. When I started reflecting on my early success and how well it was going; a huge weight was lifted off of my shoulders. While it still terrifies me that something might happen to Andre, I no longer have to worry about being able to provide independently for my children.

I am passionate about being a superWife, superMom and superPhotographer, but these are three huge responsibilies in my life that are hard to balance. I have to find a better balance. Which leads me to… HELP!

my perfect-ous ideas of being “superEverything” had to loosen up. I thought I'd never have to seek help with anything. But as you know from my earlier post, I've been looking for a nanny to come into our home 1-2 times a week so that I could have those days to totally focus on the biz and the kids could have a BLAST while being with a superFun lady providing them childcare for me, but friendship for them. Out of nowhere she appeared. I knew it from the moment that I saw her that she was answering my call to Nanny 911! Unlike all of my other horror nanny interviews! So, I'm hopeful that the application process and the background check goes well, so that she can come into our lives and become a part of our family for 5-10 hours a week. What a blessing she and the situation will be!!! Oh, and yes, I am running a background check on her... it's our children we're trusting her with. I don't take that lightly.
