Who Woulda Thunk It?!

Happy Sunday afternoon people. I haven't written in a while and I am waiting for my pictures to upload so have a few minutes of sitting still (which hardly ever happens!). I want to re-introduce myself ... I am the pastor's wife. Seriously, the PASTOR'S WIFE. Growing up, getting edu-macated, embarking on an awesome career, getting married, having a baby and now, not only am I a plain ole' wife, I am the pastor's wife. Everyone knows who I am and to be honest, I kind of like it -- who knew!? This is definitely a new role for me ... my hubby (the pastor!! lol) was ordained a couple of weeks ago and we are officially the pastor and family. I have a feeling that this newness will not rub off for a while. So, what has changed? Well, I am now a full time stay at home mommy. I cook dinner for my family every night and we actually sit down and eat it together (big deal considering our 'routine' in seminary!). I go parent-tot swimming during the day. I walk to Wal-Mart and shop because I need to see other adults. I play house with my daughter. I sew during naptime. I no longer feel a great deal of stress on Sunday nights while trying to prepare for a week of teaching. If I look over the items on this list (and many others), I am thankful for these changes. Not that I didn't like my life before but there is something so sweet about sending my hubby off to work for the day and lounging in my pajamas with a cup of coffee while my girl eats her oatmeal. Life is full of changes and this is one change I am adjusting to quite nicely.
