My life has totally changed since Abe was born in a great way. My focus has always been serving others through ministry, entertaining friends and being the best at my job. Now my focus is my family, as a wife and mom (which is my ministry), entertaining a toddler, and working part-time. Wow...how life has changed! Instead of shopping, working out, talking on the phone to friends, and dinning out. I now keep up with my friends through their blogs, playdates and facebook. Instead of dinning out at nice restaurants... I now cook almost every meal. The only shopping that I have done lately is for groceries and working out should still be a priority but it's not. My new favorite hobby is sewing and making clothes for Abe. Who would have ever thought that I would sew? It's like my life has went back 100 years in time (with the internet).
I absolutely love my life and I am thankful to God for getting me out of the "rat race" and for all of the wonderful changes that comes along with motherhood.

What beautiful words! I can totally relate! I wouldn't trade the change FOR THE WORLD!!! It scares me how fast they are growing, so I am treasuring every minute that I can!
AMEN sister! Parenthood is definitely one of the hardest most rewarding jobs that I have ever undertaken! Praise God from whom all blessings flow!
We're watching Mickey's Playhouse this very minute!!! We got rid of out satellite service a couple of weeks ago, but thankfully we have two of the boys' favorite episodes (Mickey Goes Fishing and Goofy Goes to Mars) saved on DVR :) So, I not only get to watch Mickey's Playhouse ... I get to watch the same two episodes ... over and over and over ...
Ain't motherhood great :)
