Wishing my little prince Joey Jr. a very happy 4th birthday! Mommy loves you!

I am.... Wonder Woman!!!

This week a friend posted the following on her status on her facebook page-

post a picture of someone fictional (or real) that you think best represents your personality. Be creative !!!!!!! Copy and paste this so we can all play along!

I chose a picture of Wonder Woman to represent me.

As a little girl, I loved pretending to be Wonder Woman. I would borrow my Mom's gold bracelets and start spinning around in a circle trying to turn from ordinary four-eyed Jessie into Wonder Woman!

Now as an adult I can see how Wonder Woman still represents me. Wonder Woman had an alter ego. Her alter ego was a buttoned up, glasses wearing, hair up in a bun, very responsible career woman. But once she took off those glasses and loosed her hair, she was a powerful woman who took on the world!

I never saw myself as powerful until recently. I may wear glasses and sometimes my hair is up in a bun. I may not be glamorous or beautiful but I am powerful because I know who I am. I am a wonderful mother, a good wife, a provider for my family, and most importantly a Child of God! By knowing who I am I can face any obstacle thrown my way. I can take on the world because I am Wonder Woman :)

It's Been Awhile!

It has been a long time since I have had a chance to sit down and post an update. I have been busy with work, the kids and church. I am happy to say that we are doing pretty good here in Florida. Things could be better but God has blessed us with so much since our big move!

Julia is doing great in school. She is on the A/B honor roll and she has become just like her Mommy, a bookworm! She is always reading! She loves mystery books and the American Girl books too. She just starting reading Nancy Drew books and I love it because those were my favorite mystery books growing up!

The boys are growing so fast. Both are completely potty trained. They are also talking so much. I can't believe that they will be turn 4 and 3 years old in March. Time is going by so quickly.

I am still working as a pre-school teacher. I am looking at my options of becoming a certified teacher in the county I live in. I have been praying for direction. I am not sure if I should teach middle school/ high school or keep teaching younger kids and get certified to teach in elementary school. My minor in college was in secondary education but now I have some experience with younger children so that is why I am having a hard time deciding which way to go.

I am also still trying to concentrate on writing. I have written two pieces for an online magazine called Soar. I am happy to be a part of this great magazine and the organization that it belongs to, CEFL-Center for Emerging Female Leaders.

I hope to have more to news to share soon! I hope to start regularly updating this blog too!
