This day...I have been dreading.
But as the Mommies came in and out this morning, I was given cards, cookies, smiles and hugs.
My cup overflows.
When I started this journey nine years ago, I can remember being as anxious as I am today about our next journey. I remember thinking...can I do this? Am I even qualified to do this?
As it turns out, I was.
I have loved these kids as my own.
I have watched over them...protected them...taught them...and spent hours upon hours just watching them grow.
My cup overflows.
I am sad today. But I am also so very grateful for the time I have gotten to spend with some amazing families. They have been such a blessing in all of our lives and I will miss them all...more than I can say.
Today I am making this about the blessings of what I have had with everyone and not about what I will miss. I know that God has a plan for my life....for their lives...and for our journey.
So...to
Logan and Drew

Amy, I felt the same way almost four years ago when I started my journey at home again after 25 plus years of working outside the home. You will always have "anxious" times! That is life - it's about change and it creates "anxious times" but, it also gives you new adventures, new rewards and opportunities you can't even imagine right now! Love you -
Mom (Enjoy today!)
So I just read your blog...and it reminded me of the scripture: You annoint my head w/oil, my cup runs over. Surely GOODNESS & MERCY will follow me all the days of my life...
That's my prayer for you sweet friend that goodness & mercy will follow you on this NEW journey & season! I love you bunches...and so does my trinny!
