Huffman Update

Okay so I decided to do a little Huffman Update since my last post is so depressing. Well I have now officially survived 2 full weeks as a preschool teacher. Today Mattix did not cry when I dropped him off in the morning, it was his first time. Keia actually played with some friends today, instead of clinging to my leg during outside time. Overal everything is soo much better and we are all starting to adjust to our new schedule. On to more exciting news, Matt passed his test and can officially sell Insurance to businesses and Auto and Home Insurance. I am super excited and know he will do well. Keia is getting so big- the stuff that comes out of her mouth now, its like she is 12. Today we got home from school and she saw that she left her breakfast bowl on the table and this is what she said, "Oh my gosh, I totally left my bowl out." Ummmm what??? Excuse me three year old! Mattix is talking sooo much now. Matt loves to make him say Pirate- he says it in a deep scratchy voice. Mattix always seemed like my little baby, but he is growing up now and becoming more of a toddler! We love San Diego, the weather and environment is so beautiful. I just wanted to thank everyone for your comments on my last post- it was so uplifting and encouraging, thank you soo much!!!!

HI HO, HI HO, ITS OFF TO WORK I GO!!

Today was my first official day working again. I got a full-time position at a Preschool. After many months and prayers, I felt this would work best for me and my family. I get a huge discount having my children go there, and I get to be close to my kids. Matt and I decided that it is better for our family for me to help support the family, instead of not being able to pay our bills. Luckily it is only temporary, our goal is get me back home in a year, while Matt builds his book of business (commercial Insurance). I have to say that it has been an emotional roller coaster going back to work. I really, really did not want to leave my children into someone else's hands to watch them grow and learn new things. I think I cried 5 different times today. I kept checking on my kids, and could hear Mattix crying most of the day. Keia's teacher told me she did excellent and is, "such a beautiful child."- that brought the tears on. Picking them up after working all day with 22 3yr olds, Mattix did not want me to put him down or in his car seat... I held his hand the whole way home and cried to myself. Anywho- I know that everything will work out and that my children will be well taken care of. I have never appreciated more the opportunity I had to stay at home with my Keia and Mattix. Okay, so I am done venting and being so dramatic... preschool rules, right??? I will post pics a little later of my jobby job.

Happy Halloween

Here is our princess Cinderella and Yoda. I have to say that Yoda got a lot more attention than Cinderella, but both kids had a lot of fun trick-o-treating. Mattix would stand right up to the door and try to open the door handle every door. Keia would tell herself every house while walking up.. "see, its just pretend, its just a pretend ghost, don't be scared Mommy."
